OPERATION

To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center of a pile.

Operate power equipment at reasonable hours only - not early in the morning or late at night when people might be disturbed. Comply with the times listed in local ordi- nances.

To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of equipment used at any one time.

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.

Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed to do the job.

Check your equipment before operation, especially the muffler, air intakes, and air filters.

Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.

In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water is available.

Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly washed cars, and blow debris safely away.

Use the full blower nozzle extension so the air stream can work close to the ground.

After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP! Dispose of debris properly.

Use the sweeper nozzle for the everyday blowing opera- tion. This nozzle allows for more area to be covered during the blowing operation.

The high velocity nozzle is specifically designed for wet sticky leaves. It allows you to scrape wet leaves or debris while operating the blower.

The RY09905 is a gas-powered push mower known for its robust engine and efficient cutting capabilities.

The RY08552 also boasts a 12-inch cutting width and a 90-degree pivoting head that makes it easier to access tight spaces and corners.
