OPERATING SAFELY
IN GENERAL
– Use extra care when loading or unloading the
machine into a trailer or truck.
– Do not run the engine in an enclosed area where
dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
– Never leave a running machine unattended.
Always stop engine when leaving the operator
position.
– Do not blow towards people, cars, windows, or
other items which could be injured or damaged
by the blown debris.
– Keep hands away from the blower air intake and
outlet.
STARTING
– Start according to instructions in this manual or
on the machine.
– Do not change engine governor settings or
overspeed the engine. Operating the engine
at excessive speed can increase the hazard of
personal injury.
INTERRUPTING OPERATION
- Before leaving the operator's position:
- Park on level ground.
- Shut off the engine.
- Stop the engine, and wait until the fan stops
moving:
- before refueling;
- Stop the engine, and disconnect the spark plug
wire(s):
- before clearing blockages;
- before checking, cleaning or working on the
machine;
- if the machine begins to vibrate abnormally:
shut off machine immediately. Inspect
and have repairs made as needed before
restarting;
- except for repairs or adjustments as specically
noted, such as for carburetor adjustment,
where the engine must be running. Keep
hands and feet clear of moving parts in these
circumstances.
- Allow the fan to come to a complete stop when
stopping operation to clear blockages, unclog,
inspect the machine, do maintenance or repair.
- Reduce the throttle setting during engine shut-
down and, if the engine is provided with a shut-
off valve, turn the fuel off at the conclusion of
operation.
OPERATING ON SLOPES
USE EXTRA CARE WHEN OPERATING ON SLOPES.
EVALUATE THE RISKS INVOLVED BEFORE OPER-
ATING ON A SLOPE
.
- Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall
accidents that sometimes lead to severe injury or
death. All slopes require extra caution.
- Do not operate on slopes if uneasy or uncertain.
Ultimate responsibility for safe operation on slopes
rests with the operator.
- Do not operate on steep slopes. Poor footing could
cause a slip and fall accident.
- Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual.
- Do not operate near drop-offs, ditches or embank-
ments. You could lose your footing or balance.
- Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then
turn slowly and downhill when possible.
- Be sure of your footing on slopes.
- Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks and other hid-
den objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip and
fall accident. Tall grass can hide objects.
