be disturbed.
Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before
blowing/vacuuming.
Never operate the product in an explosive atmosphere.
Do not use this machine when you are tired, ill, or
under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Do not operate in poor lighting. The operator requires
a clear view of the work area to identify potential
hazards.
Use of hearing protection reduces the ability to hear
warnings (shouts or alarms). The operator must pay
extra attention to what is going on in the working area.
Only use enough throttle (power) to complete the task,
this will reduce the potential for injury caused by noise
and vibration.
Operating similar tools nearby increases both the risk
of hearing injury and the potential for other persons to
enter your working area.
Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach.
Overreaching can result in loss of balance or exposure
to hot surfaces.
Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part.
Rotating impeller blades can cause severe injury. Stop
the engine and ensure impeller blades have stopped
rotating before opening the vacuum door, installing/
changing tubes, opening or removing debris bag.
Do not touch the area around the silencer or engine
of the unit, these parts get very hot during operation.
Inspect the machine before each use. Check for loose
fasteners, fuel leaks, etc. Make sure all guards, and
handles are properly and securely attached. Replace
any damaged parts before use.
Never run the unit without the proper equipment
attached. When used as a blower, always install the
blower tubes and close the door. When used as a
vacuum, always install the vacuum tubes and vacuum
bag.
