OPERATION
��n Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed to do the job.
��n Check your equipment before operation, especially the muffler, air intakes, and air filters.
��n Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
�n In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water is available.
��n 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.
�n Watch out for children, pets, open windows or freshly washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
�n Use the full blower nozzle extension so the air stream can work close to the ground.
�n After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP! Dispose of debris in trash receptacles.
�n The wide sweeper nozzle allows for large areas to be covered during blowing operation.
CRUISE CONTROL (THROTTLE LOCK)
See Figure 7.
The cruise control (throttle lock) can be used to operate the blower without continuously holding the throttle trigger.
TO ENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL:
�n For full throttle, depress the throttle trigger fully and slide the cruise control selector as far forward as possible.
nTo reduce engine speed, slide the cruise control selector toward the back of the blower until the desired speed is reached.
nTo release the cruise control, return the cruise control selector to the off position.
