Hungry Back Pack Blower

[Bobby]

I was wondering how many of you guys have ever had a blower eat your T-Shirt half off your back. First time it hapened to me it scared the crap out of me.<p>----------<br>Bobby <br>Ft Lauderdale

Hey, Sorry. I would like to know how this happened so I may avoid it in the future. Where hurt or did it just scare the sh*% out of you.<p>SSouth@Hiwaay.net<br>

My stihl BR400 claims about three new employees shirts every year. One time we had a guy who used to carry a bandanna in his back pocket. After about 2hrs I finnaly got it off the impeller.<p>Ssouth keep your shirt tucked in<br>

If your shirt is real loose fitting, on some blowers, it can get sucked into the intake right behind your back pad. I don't think it could hurt you, but it could damage your impeller.<p>----------<br>Bobby <br>Ft Lauderdale

I sucked a pair of panty hose right off a clothes line one time. The customer was an elderly woman and she thought it was the funniest thing she had seen in years.

the br-400 is the bad boy of shirt munchers!<p>in the early mornings lots of times I'd wear a flannel shirt over a tee shirt. one by one the bottom of the flannel shirts was shredded, missing a couple of inches. finally figured it out!<p>whenever you use that blower, shirt tail and jacket needs to be tucked in!<p>GEO<br>

Hello:<p>We had just done a repair on a blower & customer called complaining about their blower having something caught in it.<p>He brought it to the shop & we had him wait on it. Then after a little bit we pulled a black see through nightie out of it. He was embaressed & gave us a tip besides the repair bill.<p>This is not a blower, but the same thing happened with a mower. They brought their mower back saying that we got a rag caught up under it & really gave us a fit about it.<p>Well this has happened before, but when we pulled out the rag it just happened to be a ladies bra. When they came to pick it up we had the bra tied around the handle & told them there was nothing like that laying on the floor of shop.<p>She stomped out of shop leaving the mower & later her daughter came & picked it up. She had caught it in the mower & we all had a good laugh about it.<p>----------<br>GrassMaster - Home: www.lawnservicing.com<br>My Start Up Page www.lawnservicing.com/startup/
