SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

•Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point before starting it.

•Never start the machine:

-If you have spilt fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate.

-If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes, change your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water.

-If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.

Transport and storage

•Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there is no risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact with sparks or naked flames, for example, from electrical machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/switches or boilers.

•When storing and transporting fuel always use approved containers intended for this purpose.

•When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tank must be emptied. Contact your local petrol station to find out where to dispose of excess fuel.

•Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete service is carried out before long-term storage.

WARNING! Take care when handling fuel.

!Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion and inhaling fumes.

Adjusting the harness

WARNING! The harness must always be

!worn when working with the machine. Failure to do so means you will be unable to manoeuvre safely and this can result in injury to yourself or others. Never wear a harness with a defective quick release.

Quick release

(141B, 155B, 165BT)

At the front is an easily accessible, quick release. Use this if the engine catches fire or in any other emergency situation that requires you to free yourself from the machine and harness.

•Pull out the red strap.

•The hip strap and one shoulder strap will then be automatically released at the same time and the harness and engine unit will slide to the ground.

Spreading the load on your shoulders

A well-adjusted harness and machine makes work much easier. Adjust the harness for the best working position. Tension the side straps so that the weight is evenly distributed across both shoulders.

General working instructions

IMPORTANT! This section considers basic safety rules when working with blowers. If you encounter a situation where you are uncertain how to proceed you should ask an expert. Contact your dealer or your service workshop. Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond your capability.

Show consideration to persons in your surroundings by avoiding using the machine at unsuitable times, such as late in the evening or early in the morning. Read through and follow the simple directions so that you disturb your surroundings as little as possible.

•Use the blower with the lowest possible throttle. It is seldom necessary to use full throttle, and many work procedures can be done at half throttle. A lower throttle means less noise and less dust, and it is also easier to keep control over the rubbish collected together/moved.
