Method of operation

1. Use the blower only in good light and
visibility. Beware of slippery or wet
areas, ice and snow (risk of slipping),
and narrow space. Always ensure a safe
footing.
2. Never work on unstable surfaces or
steep terrain.
3. Do not work from ladders or high places.
Otherwise it may result in personal
injury.
4. To reduce the risk of personal injury, do
not direct air blast towards bystanders,
since the high pressure of the air flow
could injure eyes and could blow small
objects at great speed.
5. Never insert any foreign object into the
air intake of the machine or into the noz-
zle of the blower. It will damage the fan
wheel and may cause serious injury to
the operator or bystanders as a result of
the object or broken parts being thrown
out at high speed.
