• Blowing air is taken in from the air inlet net. When air 

flow has dropped down during operation, stop the 
engine and inspect the air inlet net for blocking by 
obstacles.

• Note that failure to remove any such obstacles may 

result in the engine becoming overheated and dam-
aged.

Never use the blower without the net of the blower. 

Before each use, check that the net is attached in 
place and is free from any damage.
