OPERATION

OPERATING THE bLOwER
See Figure 5.
 To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer
edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center
of a pile.
 To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of
equipment used at any one time.
 Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water
is available.
 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.
 Hold the blower with the handle in your right hand. (Proper
operating position is shown in figure 5.)
 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.
 Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed to
do the job.
 After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
Dispose of debris properly.
