6. use hearing protection, respiratory protection,
sight protection and sturdy shoes. Use personal
protective equipment against noise, e.g. hearing
protection, dust mask, safety glasses and shoes with a
non-slip sole.
7. transport of leaves from the vacuum. Secure the
appliance against turnover, damage and fuel leakage.
8. Remove the socket wrench, etc. All wrenches, etc.
must be removed before switching the leaf blower on.
9. Stay concentrated all the time. Pay attention to
what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not use
any power tools when you are tired. You must not work
with the leaf vacuum when you are under the influence
of alcohol, drugs or pharmaceuticals that could reduce
your ability to respond.
Caution! waRNING!
Petrol is highly flammable
•
Store the fuel only in containers specifically
approved for that purpose, in a safe place,
away from heat and open fire.
•
Do not smoke when handling fuel.
•
Refuel outdoors only - use either the fuel bottle
included or a funnel.
•
Add fuel before starting the engine. The fuel
tank cap must not be opened or engine fuel
filled when the engine is running or is still hot.
•
Do not start the appliance in the place of
refuelling as there could be petrol residues or
vapours that could cause fire.
10. engine fuel filling Always turn off the engine
before refuelling. Open the fuel tank cap very carefully
so that excessive pressure could slowly be eliminated
and no fuel squirts out. High temperatures on the
housing body are produced when working with the leaf
vacuum. Therefore, let the vacuum cool down before
refuelling. Otherwise, fuel could get ignited and cause
severe burns. when refuelling, make sure you do not
refuel too much. If the liquid has leaked outside the
tank, it must be immediately removed and the appli-
ance cleaned. After refuelling, make sure the screw cap
is fitted correctly so that it is not released as a result of
vibrations during your work.
11. time of use and breaks. A longer use of a motor
unit can lead to poor circulation of blood in hands due
to vibrations. However, you can extend the time of use
with suitable gloves or regular breaks. Please keep in
mind that personal susceptibility to poor circulation of
blood, low outside temperatures or great clasp forces
during work reduce the time of use.
12. Pay attention to parts if not damaged. Check the
appliance before using it. Are any parts damaged? As
for slight damage, ask yourself whether the appliance
is going to work perfectly and safely. Ensure correct
alignment and adjustment of the moving parts. Do
party fit correctly into each other? Are any parts
damaged? Is everything installed properly? Are all
preconditions for perfect working met?
