6.4.1 Adjusting the speed
it is always advisable to set the rotor speed in
relation to the type of material to be removed
using the button (Fig. 5.B).removed:
– low blowing speed to move light material
and small branches on the lawn;
– medium blowing speed to move grass and
light leaves on asphalt or packed soil;
– high blowing speed (3 LEDs lit,
Fig. 5.D) for heavier materials such
as fresh snow or bulky dirt.
6.4.2 Advice for operation
Proceed slowly keeping the end of
the blower tube at a suitable distance
from the ground (Fig. 4).
To avoid dispersing the material to be
removed, direct the air flow towards the
outer edges of the pile of material. Never
direct the air flow to the middle of the pile.
6.5 STOP
To stop the machine:
1. release the throttle control lever (Fig. 5.F);
2. deactivate the safety button (Fig. 5.A)
3. wait until the cutting means stops.
It takes a few seconds for the rotor to
stop after the machine has been turned off.
Always stop the machine:
– when moving between work areas.
When moving, never leave your
hand on the throttle control in order
to avoid accidental start-ups.
