6.4 OPERATION
DANGER
During operation, the machine must
always be held firmly with the right hand
on the upper handgrip (Fig 11).
ATTENTION
During operation, the battery is
protected against total drainage with a
protection device that switches off the
machine and inhibits its operation.
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 throttle control lever (Fig. 8.A):
• 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 for heavy materials,
such as fresh snow or bulky dirt.
6.4.2 Operating suggestions
• Proceed slowly keeping the end of
the blower tube at a suitable distance
from the ground (Fig. 11).
• 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. 8.A);
2. wait until the rotor stops.
DANGER
It takes a few seconds for the rotor to stop
after the machine has been turned off.
ATTENTION
Always stop the machine when moving
between different work areas.
