WORKING CONDITIONS
1. Refrain from operating the blower if you are tired, ill, 
or upset, or if you are under the influence of alcohol, 
drugs or medication
2. To reduce the risk of hearing loss associated with 
sound 
levels, 
hearing 
protection 
is 
required.
3. To reduce the risk of injury 
associated with thrown objects, 
always wear eye protection and 
foot protection. Approved 
protective goggles must comply 
with standard ANSI Z87.1 in the 
USA or EN 166 in EU countries. 
4. To reduce the risk of injury 
associated with the inhalation of 
dust, use a face filter mask in dusty 
conditions.
5. Wear rubber-soled shoes or shoes 
with some other form of anti-slip 
protection to help protect you 
against falling.
6. To reduce the risk of injury 
associated with objects being 
drawn into rotating parts, do not 
wear loose clothing, scarves, neck 
chains, hair longer than shoulder 
length, or other loose material.
7. Prolonged use of a blower, exposing the operator to 
vibrations and cold, may produce whitefinger 
disease (Raynaud’s phenomenon), the symptoms of 
which include tingling and burning sensations 
followed by loss of color and numbness in the 
fingers. All factors which contribute to whitefinger 
disease are not known, but cold weather, smoking 
diseases or physical conditions as well as long 
periods of exposure to vibration are mentioned as 
factors. In order to reduce the risk of whitefinger 
disease, the following precautions are strongly 
recommended
a) Keep your body warm. Never use the blower 
during rain.
b) Wear thick anti-vibration 
gloves. 
c) Take more than 5 minutes of 
break in a warm place fre-
quently.
d) Maintain a firm grip at all 
times, but do not squeeze the 
handles with constant, exces-
sive pressure.
e) If you feel discomfort, redness and swelling of 
your fingers or any other part of your body, see 
a doctor before it gets worse.
8. The ignition system of your unit produces an 
electromagnetic field of a very low intensity. This field 
may interfere with some pacemakers. To reduce the 
risk of serious or fatal injury, people with pacemaker 
should consult their physician and the pacemaker 
manufacturer before operating this tool.
WORKING CIRCUMSTANCE
1. To reduce the risk of injury 
associated with exhaust fume 
inhalation, do not operate in 
unventilated area. The exhaust 
gases contain harmful carbon 
monoxide.
2. Avoid using the blower where 
stable footing and balance are 
not assured.
3. Never operate the machine in high wind, bad 
weather, potentially explosive atmosphere, when 
visibility is poor or in very high or low temperatures.
(Our recommended use environment is below 40 
degrees C (104 degrees F).)
AVOID NOISE PROBLEM
NOTE
Check and follow the local regulations as to 
sound levels and hours of operations for blower. 
1. Operate power equipment only at reasonable hours, 
not early in the morning or late at night when people 
might be disturbed. Comply with times listed in local 
ordinances. 
2. To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of 
equipment used at any one time. 
3. Operate power blowers at the lowest possible 
throttle speed to do the job. 
4. Check your equipment before operation, especially 
the muffler, air intakes and air filters. 
WORKING PLAN
• To reduce the risk of health damages, avoid 
excessive use and take sufficient time to rest .
FUEL
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury:
a) Handle fuel with care. It is highly 
flammable.
b) Do not smoke while handing fuel.
c ) Do not refuel a hot engine.
d) Do not refuel a running engine. 
e) Avoid spilling fuel or oil. Always 
wipe unit dry before using. 
f ) Move at least 10 ft. (3 meters) 
away from the fueling point before starting the 
engine. 
g) Always store gasoline in a container approved for 
flammable liquids. 
h)  Make sure the unit is properly assembled and in 
good operating condition.
i )
Do not use the blower near a fire, 
as aiming the blower in the 
direction of a flame may cause 
flammable substances to ignite.
