The following section will address the safety precautions which must be adhered to when working with Pelsue conned
Space Ventilation equipment such as the #1450 Centrifugal Blower. Any user must familiarize themselves with the
information in this section before utilizing the equipment.
SIGNAL WORDS:
Note the use of the signal words DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION with the safety messages. The appropriate signal
word for each message has been selected using the following guidelines:
DANGER- Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This
signal word is to be limited to the most extreme situations or for hidden or unseen hazards.
WARNING- Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury and
includes obvious and hidden hazards. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
CAUTION- Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It
may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
You are responsible for the safe operation of your Pelsue #1450 Centrifugal Blower. You must ensure that anyone who
will operate or work around the equipment be familiar with conned space ventilation procedures. This manual will take
you step-by-step through the workings and capabilities of the #1450 Centrifugal Blower and alert you to good safety and
operating practices while using the system.
Remember, you are the key to safety. Good safety practices not only protect you but also the people around you. Make
these practices a working part of your safety program. Be certain that everyone operating in or around a conned space
is familiar with the procedures recommended and follows safety precautions. Remember, most accidents can be pre-
vented. Do not risk injury or death by ignoring good safety practices.
• The most important safety device on this equipment is a safe operator. It is the operator’s responsibility to read
and understand all of the safety and operating instructions presented within this manual and to follow them.
Most accidents can be avoided.
• A person must understand the operation of this equipment and be trained in it’s usage before operating the
equipment. An untrained operator exposes himself and others to possible serious injury or death.
• Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized modication may impair the function and/or safety and
could affect the life of the equipment.
• Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY!

4.2 - General Safety Information
!
! CAUTION ! - Be sure the blower has been shut down and the spark plug wire has been dis-
connected before doing any maintenance or repair work on the blower.
! CAUTION ! - Check all uid levels prior to operating the blower. Refer to engine manual for
uid types and required amounts.
! CAUTION ! - The engine of this unit has been modied with a stop on the throttle lever.
Removal of this stop may lead to an “overspeed” condition of the blower, which may cause
damage to the blower wheel and/or housing and could result in injury.
Safety Precautions:
It is necessary to follow these safety precautions, each time, prior to using the product.
The Safety Precautions are not limited to, but must include the following items;
1. Do not use the blower for anything other than its intended use.
2. Do not wear loose clothing that can become entangled in operating machinery. Do not operate the blower without
inlet or outlet grilles in place.
3. Do not place ngers or any other object through inlet or outlet grilles.
4. To prevent exhaust fumes from being pulled into the blower intake, never run the engine in an enclosed area and
always position the blower intake into the wind.
5. Always be sure to shut down the engine and extinguish all smoking materials before lling the fuel tank.
6. Always be sure to ll the fuel tank outdoors or in a well ventilated area. Never start the engine if the fuel has been
spilled until the spill has evaporated and there is no longer smell of gas fumes.
7. Never store or use gasoline within 50 feet of anything which may produce a spark or ame.
8. Ensure that toxic fumes are not blown into a conned space.
9. Never use this blower in any explosive environment.
10. Do not leave blower operating while unattended.

Pre-Operation Inspection Points
Prior to Operation, the #1�50 Centrifugal Blower should be congured and prepared according to the following guide-
lines.
1. Pre-Operation Inspection:
It is necessary to perform a visual inspection, each time, prior to using the product. If deciencies are found, remove the
product from service and contact the T.A. Pelsue Company regarding repair. The following checklist coupled with Figure

Setup in Conned Space
2. Setup of 1450 Centrifugal Blower:
Choose a location where installation will provide suitable proximity to the work area yet minimize obstructions during use
and in the event a rescue becomes necessary. Once a location is chosen;
a. Place the blower on a at, solid surface at a location 1.5 meters upwind (where possible) from the conned space,
and have its inlet pointed into the wind. This will reduce the chance of contamination being blown into the conned
space (Refer to Fig. #5.2b).
b. To start the engine, move the fuel lever to the ON position and move the choke lever to the CHOKE (closed) posi-
tion (Choke must fully close)
c. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and move the throttle lever to the maximum speed.
d. Grasp the rope handle and pull slowly until resistance is felt. Then rapidly pull the cord to overcome engine com-
pression and prevent kickback.
e. After the engine has started, gradually move the choke lever to the OPEN position. The engine speed can now be
adjusted to the desired speed by moving the throttle lever.
f. To shut down the blower, turn the ignition switch and the fuel lever to the OFF positions.
!!! Do not move the choke lever to the CHOKE position to stop the engine. Backre or engine damage may
occur. !!!
g. Allow the engine to cool at least 2 minutes before refuelling or storage.
h. For engine maintenance, refer to engine manual.
5.2 - Start-Up & Operating Procedures (continued)
Important Notes:
- During conned space entry operations, it
should not be assumed that the ventilator
will maintain the air inside the conned
space at a safe condition. When the ven-
tilator is in use, the air inside the conned
space should be monitored continuously
for the presence of poisonous gases and/
or toxic fumes.
- Ensure that the blower provides positive
airow the entire time during usage. The
Centrifugal blower can be used with an
accessory Air Flow Alarm (Pelsue Model
#FLO-CHEK) that will alert the entrants
when and if positive ventilation is lost during
operation.
