WARNING
Do not place blower on top of or near loose debris or
gravel. Debris may be sucked into the blower intake
vent resulting in possible damage to the product and
serious personal injury.
■ 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 time.
■ Operate the 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 or brooms to loosen the debris before
operating the product. Slightly dampen surfaces in
dusty conditions.
■ 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.
■ Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
NOTE: The high velocity nozzle is specifi cally designed
for wet sticky leaves. It allows you to scrape wet leaves or
debris while operating the blower.
