7. Hearing protection is required. Motor and air
noise may exceed safe DB levels.
8. Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive
under certain conditions. To prevent fire hazards,
do not place flammable objects close to the
engine.
9. Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refueling,
make sure the tank cap is closed properly and
secured. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area
is dry before starting the engine.
10. Never operate gasoline-powered blowers in an
enclosed or confined area. Exhaust contains
poisonous carbon monoxide gas; exposure may
cause loss of consciousness and may lead to
death.

and remains hot for some time after stopping the
engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler while
it is hot. To avoid severe burns or fire hazards, let
the engine cool before transporting or storing the
unit.
12. It is the sole responsibility of the owner/operator
to develop and practice the proper use of the
®TEMPEST POWER BLOWER in accordance
with generally accepted ventilation procedures as
well as the department’s own operating
procedures before placing the unit into service.
