To use the attachment Note: 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.

1. Use a rake or a brush to release rubbish stuck to the

2. Clean corners by starting in corners and moving

outward. This will help prevent an accumulation of debris which could fly into your face.

3. Use the blower with the lowest possible throttle/

speed. It is seldom necessary to use full throttle/ speed, and many work procedures can be done at half throttle/speed. A lower throttle/speed means less noise and less dust, and it is also easier to keep control over the rubbish collected together/moved.

4. Minimise the blowing time by lightly wetting dusty

areas or using spray equipment.

5. 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.

6. Be careful when working near plants. The force of

the air could damage tender plants.

7. The speed of the air jet is regulated by means of the

throttle/power trigger. Select the speed best suited for respective tasks.

8. Be aware of the wind direction. Work with the wind to

make your work easier.

9. Using the blower to move large piles is time

consuming and creates unnecessary noise.
