der strap for extra comfort. The strap

To blow away debris on the
ground
Fitting the blower tube and nozzle
on the blower
The blower tube (T) has a pegged slot
mounting system to the unit. To install or
remove the blower tube (or collection bag
tube for 125BV
X--SERIES
), the tube clamp
bolt must be removed. Align slot in the
blower air outlet with the raised rib on the
tube and insert tube until the holes in the
tube and housing align. Re--insert the tube
clamp bolt and tighten.
The nozzles (U) have a bayonet mount for
connection to the blower tube. Air is chan-
neled through the blower tube to the
nozzles, where the air discharge velocity
increases and the air stream discharge pat-
tern is formed to provide best performance.
The length of the blower tube can be ad-
justed by twisting the nozzle to the left to
disengage the bayonet mount and sliding
the nozzle to the appropriate position.
Twist the nozzle to the right until a click is
felt to re--secure the nozzle.
Blowing
Before you begin blowing, put on the re-
quired safety equipment.
WARNING: When fitting the blow-
er tube and nozzle, the engine must
be switched off.

WARNING: When working with
the blower, wear the required per-
sonal safety equipment:
1. Hearing protection.
2. Eye protection.
3. Protective gloves.
4. Face mask in dusty environments.
WARNING: Never point the blower
nozzle at people or animals. The
high--velocity air stream can contain
particles that may cause serious
injury, especially if the blower has
previously been used for vacuuming.
Be careful, particularly if left hand
operation is applied. Avoid any di-
rect body contact with inlet cover
area. Keep jewelry, loose clothing,
or clothing with loosely hanging
straps, ties, tassels, etc., away from
inlet cover area.
