OPERATING THE BLOWER
See Figures 10 - 11.
WARNING:
Never run the unit without the blower tubes installed or
the vacuum door securely closed. Use of an improperly
assembled unit could result in serious personal injury.
Start the blower. Refer to Starting and Stopping earlier
in this manual. Hold the blower with the upper handle in
your right hand.
WARNING:
Always hold the blower away from your body with the
handle in your right hand when operating as a blower,
keeping clearance between your body and the product.
The muffler side of the blower should be away from your
body. Any contact with the housing can result in burns
and/or other serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not place blower on top of or near loose debris or
gravel. Debris may be sucked into blower intake vent
resulting in possible damage to the unit and could result
in serious personal injury.
To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer
edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center
of a pile.
Operate power equipment at reasonable hours only - not
early in the morning or late at night when people might be
disturbed. Comply with the times listed in local ordinances.
To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of
equipment used at any one time.
Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses
for many lawn and garden applications, including areas
such as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and
gardens.
Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed to
do the job.
Check your equipment before operation, especially the
muffler, air intakes, and air filters.
Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water
is available.
Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
Hold blower, as shown in Figure 10, so the air stream can
work close to the ground.
After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
Dispose of debris properly.
Use the sweeper nozzle for the everyday blowing opera-
tion. This nozzle allows for more area to be covered during
the blowing operation.
CRUISE CONTROL LEVER/THROTTLE LOCK
See Figure 12.
The cruise control lever/throttle lock can be used to operate
the blower without holding the throttle trigger.
To engage, pull cruise control lever/throttle lock back
towards user, and stop at the desired throttle setting.
To release, push cruise control lever/throttle lock all the
way towards the front of unit.
VACUUM OPERATION
See Figure 13.
WARNING:
Never run the unit without the vacuum tubes and vacuum
bag installed. Use of an improperly assembled unit could
result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Keep the muffler and all hot surfaces of the blower/
vacuum away from your body. Failure to do so could
result in possible serious personal injury.
Install the vacuum tubes and the bag. Refer to the
Assembly section earlier in this manual.
Start the blower. Refer to Starting and Stopping earlier
in this manual.
Place the vacuum bag strap over your right shoulder.
Hold the upper handle in your left hand and the vacuum
handle in your right hand.
Move the blower/vacuum from side to side along outer
edge of the debris. To avoid clogging, do not place the
vacuum tube directly into the debris pile.
Hold the engine higher than the inlet end of the vacuum
tube.
