OPERATING THE SWEEPER
ATTACHMENT (FIG. H)
WARNING: Position the sweeper on the
right side of your body when operating the
unit. Using the sweeper on your left side can
expose you to hot surfaces and potentially
lead to injury.
WARNING: Do not operate the sweeper
with the bottom of the engine near your
waist. This will help prevent burns from a
heated surface.
WARNING: Never use the sweeper on an
unstable surface (such as a rooftop). This can
result in a serious personal injury or death.
WARNING: Do not wear loose clothing,
scarves, or jewelry while operating the
sweeper. These items can get caught in the
sweeper's moving parts and cause injury or
death.
WARNING: Discharge debris away from
electrical devices to reduce the risk of
electrocution or electric shock.
WARNING: Do not point the sweeper at
people, pets, or small animals. Debris from
the sweeper can cause serious personal injury
or death.
WARNING: Do not use the sweeper on
raised objects. These objects can damage
the unit. If you do strike a raised object while
using the sweeper, and this results in damage
or vibration, discontinue use immediately.
Operating a damaged sweeper can result in
serious personal injury.
