CONGRATULATIONS on the purchase of a new
Tuthill Truck Blower. Please examine the blower
for shipping damage, and if any damage is found,
report it immediately to the carrier. If the blower
is to be installed at a later date, make sure it is
stored in a clean, dry location and rotated regularly.
Make sure covers are kept on all openings. If the
blower is stored outdoors, be sure to protect it from
weather and corrosion.
Tuthill Truck Blowers are built to exacting
standards and, if properly installed and maintained,
will provide many years of reliable service. Read
and follow every step of these instructions when
installing and maintaining the blower.
OTE:N Record the blower model and serial
numbers of the machine in the
OPERATING DATA form on the inside
back cover of this manual. Use this
identification on any replacement part
orders, or if service or application
assistance is required.

• If power take off and/or shaft are still exposed
after installation, install a guard.
• Install a support strap when servicing a drive
shaft to prevent personal injury.
