Muffler
The muffler is designed to give the lowest
possible noise level and to direct the en-
gine's exhaust fumes away from the opera-
tor. Mufflers fitted with catalytic converters
are also designed to reduce harmful ex-
haust components.
WARNING:
The exhaust fumes
from the engine are hot and may
contain sparks which can start a fire.
Never start the machine indoors or
near flammable material!
WARNING:
Mufflers fitted with
catalytic converters become extreme-
ly hot during use and after stopping.
This also applies at idling speeds.
Contact can result in burns to the
skin. Be aware of the risk of fire!
Safety equipment
WARNING:
The blower must
never be used if any of the safety
devices or guards are missing,
damaged or not in working order.
The blower is equipped with a number of
safety devices and guards for the preven-
tion of accidents. These are described in
the general description of the blower.
The safety devices and guards also require
regular inspection and maintenance. These
measures and the interval at which they
should be carried out are specified in the
Maintenance section.
Safety while operating the
blower
S Do not allow bystanders or animals to be
in the work area, i.e. 50 feet (15 meters)
from the operator.
S The blower may throw objects at high
velocity that can ricochet and hit the opera-
tor. This may cause serious eye damage.
S Never point the blower nozzle toward
people or animals.
S Stop the engine before fitting or disman-
tling accessories or other components.
S Never operate the blower if any of the
guards are missing.
S Never operate the blower in poorly venti-
lated spaces where exhaust fumes might
otherwise be inhaled.
S Stop the engine before refueling. Move
the unit at least 10 feet (3 meters) from
fueling site before attempting to start.
S The catalytic muffler is extremely hot
while the blower is running and after it
has stopped. The same applies when the
blower is running at idling speed. Be
aware of the danger of fire, especially
while operating the blower near flam-
mable materials and/or where flammable
fumes are present.
