Ŷ Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string which can be blown a considerable distance by high velocity air. Ŷ Wear full eye and hearing protection while operating the product. This machine is extremely noisy and permanent hearing may result if precautions to limit our exposure, reduce noise and wear hearing protection are not strictly adhered to. Ŷ Wear heavy long trousers, boots, and gloves. Do not wear loose fitting clothing, short trousers, jewellery of any kind, or use with bare feet. Ŷ Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in moving parts. Ŷ Beware of thrown objects; keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 15 m away from work area. Ŷ Operate the machine only at reasonable hours – not early in the morning or late at night when people might be disturbed. Ŷ Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing/vacuuming. Ŷ Never operate the product in an explosive atmosphere. Ŷ Do not use this machine when you are tired, ill, or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication. Ŷ Do not operate in poor lighting. The operator requires a clear view of the work area to identify potential hazards. Ŷ 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. Ŷ Only use enough throttle (power) to complete the task, this will reduce the potential for injury caused by noise and vibration. Ŷ Operating similar tools nearby increases both the risk of hearing injury and the potential for other persons to enter your working area. Ŷ Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can result in loss of balance or exposure to hot surfaces. Ŷ 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. Ŷ Do not touch the area around the silencer or engine of the unit, these parts get very hot during operation. Ŷ 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. Ŷ 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. Ŷ Do not modify the machine in any way or use parts and accessories which are not recommended by the manufacturer. WARNING If the machine is dropped, suffers heavy impact or begins to vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the machine and inspect for damage or identify the cause of the vibration. Any damage should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre.10 English (Original instructions) Ŷ Stop the engine and allow it to cool before refuelling, storing or transporting the machine. Ŷ For refuelling and fuel mixing, chose an area away from sources of ignition (sparks, flames etc.), Flammable materials and which is well ventilated. Ŷ Do not smoke when mixing fuel or filling fuel tank. Ŷ Mix and store fuel in a container approved for fuel. Keep an appropriate type of fire extinguisher nearby for dealing with fuel fires. Ŷ Remember to securely refit the fuel tank filler cap before starting the engine. Ŷ Wipe up any fuel spillage. Move 10 m away from refuelling site before starting engine. Ŷ It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, numbness and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of the these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration: Ɣ Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome. Ɣ After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation. Ɣ Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.
