ADJUSTING THE AIR SPEED (Fig. U)
The blower is equipped with stepless speed regulation to
control air speed.
1. To increase the air speed, pull the variable-speed lever
downward when the blower runs; to reduce the air
speed, push the knob upward.
2. To boost the air speed at any setting, press the boost
button to increase the air speed to the maximum. The
blower will resume the previously selected speed when
this button is released.
TIPS FOR USING THE BLOWER
◾ To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer
edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the
center of a pile.
◾ To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of
equipment used at any one time.
◾ Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces if water
is available.
◾ Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
◾ After using blowers or other equipment, clean up!
Dispose of debris properly.

children. Keep away from corrosive agents, such as
garden chemicals and de-icing salts.
Protecting the environment
Do not dispose of electrical appliances as
unsorted municipal waste, use separate
collection facilities.
Contact your local government for infor-
mation regarding the collection systems
available.
If electrical appliances are disposed of in
landlls or dumps, hazardous substances
can leak into the groundwater and get into
the food chain, damaging your health and
well-being.
