| Keith's Pro Tip | "When using the leaf blower function remember that this can ricochet. When your blowing away the debris on the ground, you are also blowing all things on the ground where you are spraying, including debris like glass shard, left over nails or screws in your yard, and so on. This is why you should minimize the blower power when blowing with the leaf blower. Not only are you keeping other people near you safe, but you are also having an easier control over the blower." |
