operating blower

WARNING

Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a poison gas. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness, serious in- jury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS position unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face and body.

WARNING

Always wear safety glasses, hearing protection, a face filter mask

and take all safety precautions or serious personal injury may result. Do not point the blower pipe in the direction of people or pets.

IMPORTANT

Use reduced speed only when performing light-duty tasks or to comply with local noise regulations. Continuous low speed operation may allow fuel/oil residue to build-up on the piston and cause rapid build-up of carbon on the spark arrestor screen, resulting in overheating and engine damage. To reduce harmful build-up, run engine at wide open throttle for at least 5 minutes every hour, and inspect/clean the spark arrestor screen after ap- proximately 40 hours of operation.

Read the Safety Section carefully.

IMPORTANT

To avoid engine damage due to over-revving, do not block blower pipe opening.

1.Use only during appropriate hours.

2.Allow the engine to warm up at a fast idle for a few minutes.

3.PB-755SH

Set engine speed with throttle lever (A).

PB-755ST

Control engine speed with throttle trigger (C), or throttle position lever (A). Rotate throttle position lever forward for lower speed, back for higher speed.

4.Use lower speed to blow dry leaves from walks, patios and drives.

5.Additional speed may be necessary to clean grass and leaves from a lawn or flower bed.

6.Higher speed may be necessary to move gravel, dirt, snow, bottles or cans from a driveway, street, parking lot or stadium.

NOTE

Never use a higher speed setting than necessary to perform a task. Remember, the higher the engine speed, the louder the blower noise. Minimize dust by using blower at lower speeds and by dampening material with water/mist when necessary. Keep debris on your property.

Be Smart - be a good neighbor.
