Warning!
Dust with silica in its composition may
contain crystalline silica. Silica is a basic
component of sand, quartz, brick, clay,
granite and numerous other minerals
and rocks, including masonry and con-
crete products. Repeated and / or sub-
stantial inhalation of airborne crystalline
silica can cause serious or fatal respira-
tory disease, including silicosis. In addi-
tion, the state of California and some
other authorities have listed respirable
crystalline silica as a substance known
to cause cancer. When encountering
such materials, always follow the re-
spiratory precautions mentioned above.
!
Warning!
Breathing asbestos dust is dangerous
and can cause severe or fatal injury, re-
spiratory illness or cancer. The use and
disposal of asbestos containing products
have been strictly regulated by OSHA
and the Environmental Protection
Agency. Do not blow or disturb asbestos
or asbestos containing products, such
as asbestos insulation. If you have any
reason to believe that you might be
disturbing asbestos, immediately contact
your employer or a local OSHA
representative.

When working with the blower, always
wrap your fingers tightly around the
handle, keeping the control handle
cradled between your thumb and
forefinger. Keep your hand in this
position to have your machine under
control at all times. Make sure your
control handle (and grip for vacuum
attachment) are in good condition and
free of moisture, pitch, oil or grease.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do
not direct air blast towards bystanders,
since the high pressure of the air flow
could injure eyes and could blow small
objects at great speed. Do not direct air
blast towards pets.
To reduce the risk
of injury from
thrown objects,
always keep
bystanders 5
meters away
from your own position.
!
Warning!
Always shut off the engine before
cleaning or servicing the unit or
replacing parts. Always disconnect the
spark plug before performing
maintenance or accessing movable
parts.
The blower fan between the air intake
and output openings rotates whenever
the engine is running. In order to reduce
the risk of injury from contact with the
fan, never operate your unit without a
properly mounted intake screen and
blower tube. Never insert any foreign
object into the air intake or output
openings of the machine.
Pay attention to the direction of the wind,
i.e., do not work against the wind.
To reduce the risk of stumbling and loss
of control,do not walk backward while
operating the machine.
Using the Vacuum Attachment
For specific assembling instructions,
see the appropriate section of your
owner's manual.
Your shredder vacuum is designed for
two-handed operation. Hold and operate
the unit with your right hand on the
control handle and your left hand on the
assist handle.
Wear the shoulder strap for the catcher
bag over your left shoulder – not across
your chest.
