WARNING

Check to see if the shock-absorbers have become cracked
or otherwise damaged. Note that failing to replace these
rubber and spring mounts when they have become cracked
or damaged may cause the engine to come loose from its
frame during use, thus resulting in possible serious bodily
injury.

If cracked, be sure to replace without delay.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury associated with contacting
rotating parts, stop the engine before installing or removing
attachments. Never take off the Guard Net .
Always disconnect the spark plug before performing main-
tenance or accessing movable parts.

USING THE PRODUCT

WARNING

While using the product, if abnormal noise or vibration
occurs, stop the engine immediately and contact the near-
est Jonsered servicing dealer for assistance. Checking the
fan is very important. If the rotating fan should break up, it
might lead to serious accidents.

1. This blower is a backpack type, and is shouldered while

operating. It is operated and controlled with the handle on
the tube by right hand.

2. Check the work area that the blower will be used in and

remove or cover all valuables that may be damaged by the air
blast or thrown debris.

3. Make sure you can move and stand

safely. Check the area around you for
possible obstacles (roots, rocks,
branches, ditches, etc.) in case you
have to move suddenly. Take great
care when working on sloping ground.

4. To reduce the risk of injury associated with thrown objects.

a) Watch out for children, pets, open windows or freshly

washed cars, and blow debris safely away.

b) Use the full blower tube extension so the air stream can

work close to the ground.

c) Do not allow bystanders in work area.
d) Do not point the blower

tube in the direction of
people or pets.

e) Always check to be sure

that no debris has been
blown onto someone
else’s property.

f) Pay attention to the direction of the wind, do not work

against the wind.

5. To minimize blowing time.

a) Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
b) In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces or use a

mister attachment when water is available.

c) 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.

6. The blower must not be used while on

a ladder or scaffolding.

7. Never put the machine down with the

engine running unless you have it in
clear sight.

8. Never touch the spark plug or plug cord

while the engine is in operation. Doing
so may result in being subjected to an
electrical shock.

9. Never touch the muffler, spark plug, or

other metallic parts of the engine, or
area around the engine cover while the
engine is in operation or immediately
after shutting down the engine. These metallic parts reach
high temperatures during operation and doing so could result
in serious burns.

WARNING

The temperature of the machine may increase after stop-
ping the engine. Especially never forget to cool down the
engine before refueling the machine.

10. In an emergency, pull up the lower

portion of both strap buckles to loosen
the straps. Move yourself away from
the unit.

11. After using blowers and other

equipment, CLEAN UP! Dispose of
debris in trash receptacles.
