General working procedures
NOTE
-
Be considerate of the people around you:
Avoid using the appliance at inappropriate times, such as late evening or early morning. Reduce the noise level by limiting the number of appliances used simultaneously. Read and follow the simple advice below to minimise disruption to your surroundings. -
Use the appliance only during normal working hours to avoid unnecessary noise nuisance. Avoid working in the early morning or late evening.
Avoid gunning the engine during operation. Using less fuel not only makes less noise, it also kicks up less dust. In addition, you also have better control over the material you are blowing together or away.
■ Remove any debris stuck to the ground with the help of a rake or stiff broom.
- Keep the blower opening as close as possible to the floor. Use the entire length of the blower pipe to keep the air jet close to the ground.
Leave your work area clean and tidy. Make sure that you have not blown rubbish onto other people's property.
WARNING!
Pay attention to your surroundings. If anyone approaches your working area, reduce the throttle to a minimum until the person is again at a sufficient distance.
Always direct the air jet away from people, animals, playgrounds, open windows, cars, etc.
Basic safety instructions
No unauthorised persons or animals may be present in a work area of 15m
■ Allow the engine to cool down before topping up the fuel.
- Keep all parts of your body away from hot surfaces.
If the appliance catches fire or there is any other emergency that requires you to detach from the appliance, open the straps and let it fall backwards.
Due to the strong air flow, foreign objects can be blown away at such a speed that they can bounce back and cause serious eye injuries.
Never direct the air steam toward people or animals.
Always switch off the engine before installing or removing accessories or the like.
Avoid using the appliance in bad weather, such as thick fog, heavy rain or wind, very cold, etc. Working in bad weather is very tiring and can cause dangerous conditions, e.g. a risk of slipping.
- Reduce the blowing time by slightly moistening dusty areas or by using spray devices.
Make sure that you can walk and stand safely. Watch out for possible obstacles (roots, stones, branches, holes, ditches, etc.) if you suddenly change your location. Be especially careful when working on sloping ground.
Never set down the appliance unattended with the engine running.
The engine exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Never start or run the appliance indoors or in other places with poor air circulation.
The leaf blower may not be used on ladders, scaffolding or in a raised position (e.g. on roofs). This work can lead to serious injuries.
■ ATTENTION! Never use the appliance in areas where it is not possible to call for help in the event of an accident.

Basic working techniques
Make sure that you are familiar with the appliance before starting work.
WARNING!
WARNING! Risk of flying objects. Always wear goggles. Flying stones, debris, etc. could hit your eyes and cause serious injury or blindness. Maintain a safe distance. Children, animals, spectators and helpers should remain outside a safety zone of 15m . Switch off the appliance immediately if anyone approaches.
Do not use the appliance if the exhaust opening on the engine cover is obstructed by a wall and/or other objects. Otherwise, the appliance could be damaged. Ensure that a distance of at least 50~cm to other objects is always maintained during operation.
The leaf blower is portable and is carried during operation on the shoulders by means of a belt. It is controlled with the right hand using the handle on the pipe.
The speed of the air jet is controlled with the throttle. Adjust the speed to the respective application.
Make sure that the air inlet is not blocked, for example, by leaves or dirt. A blocked air inlet reduces the blowing power and increases the working temperature of the engine, which can lead to engine failure. If necessary, switch off the engine and remove any foreign bodies.
Pay attention to the wind direction. It is easier to work with the wind (at your back).
The leaf blower should not be used to move large piles of leaves, as this is very time-consuming and causes unnecessary noise.
Assume a safe working position with a firm stand.
After finishing work, the machine must be stored upright.
