General Safety (continued)
California Proposition 65
The DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum must be operated safely to prevent or minimize the risk of minor or moderate injury. Unsafe
operation can create a number of hazards for you. Always take the following precautions when operating this machine:
Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people, their property, and
themselves.
Never use the DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum to vacuum anything but yard waste, such as leaves, grass, small twigs and pine
cones.
If the machine starts to make an unusual noise or vibration, immediately shut off the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire,
and allow all moving parts to come to a complete stop and cool. Inspect for clogging or damage. Clean and repair and/or
replace damaged parts.
See manufacturer’s instructions for proper operation and installation of accessories. Only use accessories approved by DR
Power Equipment.
Always keep the equipment in a good safe operating condition. Always make certain nuts and bolts are tight and always use
the supplied self-locking hardware; do not substitute.
Never run the engine unless the chute, fabric collector sleeve, and hose are all securely in place and the engine frame is
securely connected to the main frame.
Check behind your DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum before backing up. You cannot see directly behind the collector box.
Never attempt to open or empty the collector while the lawn tractor deck is engaged or the DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum engine
is running. Debris may exit at high velocity as you begin to open the collector.
Do not operate in sandy areas where you will vacuum large quantities of sand. Sand will erode the vacuum housing. Check
for holes after each use and replace the housing and liner when holes develop.
Never operate the machine on slopes greater than 15 degrees.
Never tow the DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum faster than 8 mph.
Always shut off the lawn tractor engine and the DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before
attempting to clear any obstructions from the hose.
Use the DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum only in daylight.
Never straddle or reach over the engine area at any time.
Use only your hands to operate the DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum engine controls.
Do not, under any conditions, remove, bend, cut, fit, weld, or otherwise alter standard parts on the DR Leaf and Lawn
Vacuum. Modifications to your machine could cause personal injuries and will void your warranty.
Do not alter or tamper with safety devices or shields. Make sure they are in their proper position.
While using the DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum, do not hurry or take things for granted.
Never leave the DR Leaf and Lawn Vacuum unattended with its engine running.
Do not operate the machine when under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
