OPERATING THE BLOWER
See Figure 5.
 To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer
edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center

 To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of
equipment used at any one time.
 Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water
is available.
 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.
 Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
 After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
Dispose of debris properly.
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Therefore,
switch should always be in the OFF position when not in
