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.

not direct air blast towards bystanders,
since the high pressure of the air flow

objects at great speed. Do not direct air
blast towards pets.

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.
