General working instructions
For assembling accessories on basic machine, refer to
manual for basic machine.
In order to prevent damage due to falling of the product,
assembly and dismantling should be conducted close to
the ground surface.
IMPORTANT! This section considers basic safety rules
when working with blowers. If you encounter a situation
where you are uncertain how to proceed you should ask
an expert. Contact your dealer or your service
workshop. Avoid all usage which you consider to be
beyond your capability.
Show consideration to persons in your surroundings by
avoiding using the machine at unsuitable times, such as
late in the evening or early in the morning. Reduce the
noise levels by limiting the number of equipment units
used simultaneously. Read through and follow the simple
directions so that you disturb your surroundings as little as
possible.
•
Use the blower with the lowest possible throttle. It is
seldom necessary to use full throttle, and many work
procedures can be done at half throttle. A lower
throttle means less noise and less dust, and it is also
easier to keep control over the rubbish collected
together/moved.
•
Use a rake or a brush to release rubbish stuck to the
ground.
•
Hold the opening of the blower as close to the ground
as possible. Utilise the entire length of the blow pipe
to keep the air current close to the ground.
•
Clean corners by starting in corners and moving
outward. This will help prevent an accumulation of
debris which could fly into your face.
•
Clean up afterwards. Make sure that you have not
blown rubbish into someone's garden. Dispose of
debris in trash receptacles.
•
Use the machine during normal working hours to
avoid unnecessary noise. Avoid working early in the
morning or late at night.
WARNING! Be aware of your
!
surroundings. If anyone approaches your
work area, set the throttle control to the
lowest throttle until the person is at a
safe distance. Direct the blower away
from people, animals, play areas, open
windows and cars etc. The force of air
can cause rocks, dirt or sticks to be
thrown or to ricochet which can hurt
people or animals, break glass or cause
other damage.
•
Never put hands or other objects into blower housing
to avoid serious injury from the rotating impeller.
•
Keep outside surface free from oil and fuel.
WORKING TECHNIQUES
•
Never use for spreading chemicals, fertilizer or other
substances which may contain toxic materials.
•
To avoid spreading fire, do not use near leaf or brush
fire, fireplaces, barbecue pits, ashtrays, etc.
•
Never douse or squirt the attachment with water or
any other liquid.
Basic safety rules
•
No unauthorised persons or animals may be present
in the working area, which is 15 metres.
•
Always use both hands to hold the machine. Hold the
machine at the side of your body.
•
Allow the engine to cool before refuelling.
•
Keep all parts of your body away from hot surfaces.
•
The powerful currents of air can move objects at such
a speed that they can bounce back and cause serious
eye injuries.
•
Do not direct the air jet towards people or animals.
•
Stop the engine before assembling or dismantling
accessories or other parts.
•
Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as
dense fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc.
Working in bad weather is tiring and can lead to
dangerous conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces.
•
Minimise the blowing time by lightly wetting dusty
areas or using spray equipment.
•
Reduce water consumption by using blowers instead
of water hoses for different applications around the
lawn and garden, such as lattices, screens, grills,
porches, etc
•
Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the
area around you for possible obstacles (roots, rocks,
branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move
