Operating The Blower; Cruise Control - Ryobi RY25AXB Manuel D'utilisation

OPERATING THE BLOWER

See Figures 7 - 8.
WARNING:
Never run the unit without the blower tube installed and
all guards and housings in place. Use of an improperly
assembled unit could result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Always hold the blower away from your body with the
handle in your right hand, keeping clearance between
your body and the product. The muffler side of the blower
should be away from your body. Any contact with the
housing can result in burns and/or other serious personal
injury.
WARNING:
Engine housing can become hot during operation. Do
not touch or place any part of your body or clothing on
the engine housing, vents surrounding the muffler, or
exhaust port when starting, operating, or transporting
the blower. Stop and allow the engine to cool down for
at least 30 minutes prior to storing the blower and do
not allow blower to contact combustible materials when
storing. Contact with the engine housing, muffler vents,
or exhaust gases could result in serious burns and/or
ignite combustible materials.
WARNING:
Do not point the blower outlet towards people, pets, or
houses/buildings. Keep all bystanders at least 50 feet
away. Thrown objects can result in serious personal injury
or property damage.
NOTICE:
Always operate your product in compliance with all
applicable laws and ordinances.
 When operating this unit, you may wear a shoulder strap
to provide additional support for the unit.
 Start the blower. Refer to Starting and Stopping earlier
in this manual. Hold the blower with the handle in your
right hand.
OPERATION
WARNING:
Do not place blower on top of or near loose debris or
gravel. Debris may be sucked into blower intake vent
resulting in possible damage to the unit and could result
in serious personal injury.
 To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer
edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center
of a pile.
 Operate power equipment at reasonable hours only - not
early in the morning or late at night when people might be
disturbed. Comply with the times listed in local ordinances.
 To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of
equipment used at any one time.
 Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses
for many lawn and garden applications, including areas
such as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and
gardens.
 Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed to
do the job.
 Check your equipment before operation, especially the
muffler, air intakes, and air filters.
 Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
 In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water
is available.
 Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
 Hold blower, as shown in figure 6, so the air stream can
work close to the ground.
 After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
Dispose of debris properly.
