OPERATING SAFELY
IN GENERAL
–  Use extra care when loading or unloading the 
machine into a trailer or truck.
–  Do not run the engine in an enclosed area where 
dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
–  Never leave a running machine unattended. 
Always stop engine when leaving the operator 
position.
–   Do not blow towards people, cars, windows, or 
other items which could be injured or damaged 
by the blown debris.
–   Keep hands away from the blower air intake and 
outlet.
STARTING
–  Start  according to instructions in this manual or 
on the machine.
–  Do not change engine governor settings or 
overspeed the engine. Operating the engine 
at excessive speed can increase the hazard of 
personal injury.
INTERRUPTING OPERATION
-  Before leaving the operator's position: 
 
-  Park on level ground.
 
-  Shut off the engine. 
-  Stop the engine,  and wait until the fan stops 
moving:
 
-  before refueling;
-  Stop the engine,  and disconnect the spark plug 
wire(s):
 
-  before clearing blockages;
 
-  before checking, cleaning or working on the 
machine; 
 
-  if the machine begins to vibrate abnormally: 
shut off machine immediately.  Inspect 
and have repairs made as needed before 
restarting;
 
-  except for repairs or adjustments as specifically 
noted, such as for carburetor adjustment, 
where the engine must be running.  Keep 
hands and feet clear of moving parts in these 
circumstances.
-  Allow the fan to come to a complete stop when 
stopping operation to clear blockages, unclog, 
inspect the machine, do maintenance or repair.
-  Reduce the throttle setting during engine shut-
down and, if the engine is provided with a shut-
off valve, turn the fuel off at the conclusion of 
operation. 
 OPERATING ON SLOPES
USE EXTRA CARE WHEN OPERATING ON SLOPES.  
EVALUATE THE RISKS INVOLVED BEFORE OPER-
ATING ON A SLOPE
.
-  Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall 
accidents that sometimes lead to severe injury or 
death.  All slopes require extra caution.
Do not operate on slopes if uneasy or uncertain.  
Ultimate responsibility for safe operation on slopes 
rests with the operator.
-  Do not operate on steep slopes.  Poor footing could 
cause a slip and fall accident.
-  Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual.
-  Do not operate near drop-offs, ditches or embank-
ments.  You could lose your footing or balance. 
-  Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then 
turn slowly and downhill when possible.
-  Be sure of your footing on slopes.
-  Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks and other hid-
den objects.  Uneven terrain could cause a slip and 
fall accident.  Tall grass can hide objects.
