the blower.
This operator’s manual has been written
for those who need guidance when it
comes to fault tracing, thorough servicing
and carrying out corrective maintenance of
the blower.
There are warning symbols on the blower.
Should any of the warning symbols on the
blower become disfigured or worn, new ones
should be ordered and fitted to the blower as
soon as possible. Note that some of the
warning symbols may be molded in certain
components of the blower.
The blower is used for blowing away leaves
and other debris on the ground. When op-
erating the blower, the operator must stand
with both feet firmly on the ground.
