Physical Condition  
Your judgment and physical dexterity may not be good:  
• if you are sick,  
• if you are taking medication,  
• if you have taken alcohol or drugs.  
Operate unit only if you are physically and mentally well.  
Eye Protection  
Wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 or CE requirements whenever you operate the ProSweep attachment.  
Hand Protection  
Wear no-slip, heavy duty work gloves to improve your grip on the Pro Attachment Series or Split Boom handles. Gloves  
also reduce the transmission of machine vibration to your hands.  
Hearing Protection  
ECHO recommends wearing hearing protection whenever unit is used.  
Proper Clothing  
Wear snug fitting, durable clothing;  
• Pants should have long legs, shirts with long sleeves.  
• Wear hair covering to contain long hair.  
• DO NOT WEAR SHORTS,  
• DO NOT WEAR TIES, SCARFS, JEWELRY.  
Wear sturdy work shoes with non-skid soles;  
• DO NOT WEAR OPEN TOED SHOES,  
• DO NOT OPERATE UNIT BAREFOOTED.  
Keep long hair away from engine and air intake. Retain hair with cap or net.  
Hot Humid Weather  
Heavy protective clothing can increase operator fatigue which may lead to heat stroke. Schedule heavy work for early  
morning or late afternoon hours when temperatures are cooler.  
Vibration and Cold --  
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud’s Phenomenon, which affects the fingers of certain individuals may be  
brought about by exposure to vibration and cold. Exposure to vibration and cold may cause tingling and burning sen-  
sations followed by loss of color and numbness in the fingers. The following precautions are strongly recommended  
because the minimum exposure which might trigger the ailment is unknown.  
Keep your body warm, especially the head, neck, feet, ankles,  
hands and wrists.  
Maintain good blood circulation by performing vigorous arm exer-  
cises during frequent work breaks and also by not smoking.  
Limit the hours of operation. Try to fill each day with jobs where  
operating the unit or other hand-held power equipment is not re-  
quired.  
If you experience discomfort, redness, and swelling of the fingers  
followed by whitening and loss of feeling, consult your physician  
before further exposing yourself to cold and vibration.

Repetitive Stress Injuries --  
It is believed that overusing the muscles and tendons of the fingers, hands, arms, and shoulders may cause soreness,  
swelling, numbness, weakness, and extreme pain in those areas. Certain repetitive hand activities may put you at a high  
risk for developing a Repetitive Stress Injury (RSI). An extreme RSI condition is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), which  
could occur when your wrist swells and squeezes a vital nerve that runs through the area. Some believe that prolonged  
exposure to vibration may contribute to CTS. CTS can cause severe pain for months or even years.  
To reduce the risk of RSI/CTS, do the following:  
• Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended or twisted position. In-  
stead try to maintain a straight wrist position. Also, when grasping,  
use your whole hand, not just the thumb and index finger.  
• Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest your hands.  
• Reduce the speed and force in which you do the repetitive move-  
ment.  
• Do exercises to strengthen the hand and arm muscles.  
• See a doctor if you feel tingling, numbness or pain in the fingers,  
hands, wrists or arms. The sooner RSI/CTS is diagnosed, the more  
likely permanent nerve and muscle damage can be prevented.  
DAngEr  
Do not operate this product indoors or in inadequately ventilated  
areas. Engine exhaust contains poisonous emissions and can cause  
serious injury or death.  
Read the Manuals  
• Provide all users of this equipment with the Operator's Manual and  
Safety Manual for instructions on Safe Operation.  
Clear the Work Area  
• Spectators and fellow workers must be warned, and children and  
animals prevented from coming nearer than 15 m (50 ft.) while the  
unit is in use.  
Keep a Firm Grip  
• Hold the front and rear handles with both hands, with thumbs and  
fingers tightly encircling the handles.  
Keep a Solid Stance  
• Maintain footing and balance at all times. Do not stand on slippery,  
uneven or unstable surfaces. Do not work in odd positions or on lad-  
ders. Do not over reach.  
Avoid Hot Surfaces  
• During operation, the drive shaft housing, attachment bearing hous-  
ing and muffler cover area may become very hot, too hot to touch.  
Avoid contact during and immediately after operation.

wArning  
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries. Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all  
openings. Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts have come to a complete  
stop before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit.  
NOTE  
Refer to your Pro Attachment Series or Split Boom Operator's Manuals for correct engine fueling, starting and stop-  
ping instructions.  
1. Hold unit on your right side resting sweeper brushes on work sur-  
face.  
2. Firmly grasp throttle grip with right hand and front handle with left  
hand.  
3. Position ProSweep at an angle to the work surface well out in front  
of your body.  
wArning  
The sweeper brushes rotate towards the operator. Do not operate  
ProSweep at an angle with brushes close to your body which could  
result in loss of control and possible serious injury.  
4. Accelerate to full throttle and allow brushes to push debris ahead.  
Sweep to an area where debris can be piled and collected.  
IMPORTANT  
Extended use of unit at low throttle settings could cause damage to  
clutch because of clutch slipping.  
5. Debris may be swept out and away from corners by turning unit  
over to reverse brush direction. Grip unit securely using both  
hands. Operate throttle trigger with thumb of right hand. For  
extended use, reposition front handle to allow comfortable grip.  
Return handle to normal position for regular operation.  
wArning  
Turning ProSweep over to reverse sweeper drum rotation will  
cause debris to be swept toward operator. Reduce engine speed,  
and be alert for unstable footing caused by loose debris.  
6. When sweeping wide areas, angle brushes to pile debris in rows;  
then collect material.  
7. Use an angle of 15-30º. This helps direct debris and reduces opera-  
tor fatigue.
