OPERATING THE BLOWER
See Figure 5.
  To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer edges 
of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center of a pile.
  To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of equip-
ment used at any one time.
  Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing. In 
dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water is 
available.
  Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses for 
many lawn and garden applications, including areas such as 
gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens.
  Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly 
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
  After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP! Dispose 
of debris properly.
WARNING:
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Therefore, 
switch should always be in the OFF position when not in use 
or carrying at your side.
