3.3- Safety precautions
3.3.1- Initial preparation before operation
- When you operate the blower, always wear full-length trousers, as well as sturdy, closed shoes that
provide good support. Do NOT operate the blower wearing shorts, when barefoot or wearing open
sandals!
- Under no circumstances should jewellery, any other body ornamentation, or loose clothing be worn
while operating the device as these items could be drawn into the suction orifice. When working
outdoors, rubber gloves and non-slip footwear should always be worn. If you have long hair, put it in
a hair net.
- Wear protective equipment and always wear protective goggles.
Wearing protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip footwear, protective gloves, a helmet
and/or hearing protection (depending on the type and application of the electrical device concerned)
reduces the risk of injury.
- When performing work that generates dust, wear a dust protective mask.
- Each time you use the blower, check the integrity of the product's power cord and your own
extension cord. The product should only be operated when its accessories are in perfect working
order. Any damaged or defective components should be repaired immediately by a qualified
technician. Never attempt to use an incomplete, not fully assembled or modified blower.
- Under no circumstances should the blower be operated while safety devices or protections are
damaged or if safety equipment such as a deflection device or collection bag are not installed.
- Only extension cords that are rated for outdoor use should be used outdoors.
Any extension cord used should measure a minimum cross section of 1.5mm2. All plug-in
connections should have an earth contact and water-spray shielding.
- Browse the working area to:
-.- remove all objects and foreign materials that may be thrown by the blower,
-.- identify hard objects or risk areas to avoid damaging the blower.
3.3.2- During use
- Make sure the power cord is kept behind and away from the device while you work.
- If the power cord or extension cord are damaged while you work, unplug the blower immediately.
DO NOT TOUCH THE CABLE BEFORE UNPLUGGING IT FROM ITS POWER SOURCE.
- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
- Never use the power cord as a handle to lift or carry the device.
- Always unplug the product under the following circumstances:
. When the blower is not in use, is being carried/transported, or is left unattended.
. While examining, cleaning or unclogging the product.
. When cleaning the product, performing maintenance on it, or attaching accessories to it.
. If the device strikes a foreign object (e.g. fence...) or begins vibrating abnormally.
- If product bumps into any object during operation, stop it and control that it has not been damaged.
Replace or repair any damaged piece in a qualified service centre.
