Throttle Limiter
The EB854RT blower has a throttle
limiter function that allows the operator
to pre-set the maximum engine speed.
This is useful for reducing the noise
emitted by the blower in noise sensitive
areas.
Setting Throttle Limiter:
For reduced noise setting, move the
throttle limiter located on the right side
of the throttle control to the dB setting.
See Figure 17.

The EB854RT blower is equipped with a multi- function throttle control. The “Cruise” function allows the operator to use a thumb
controlled lever for constant speed use without using the throttle trigger. This is useful for limiting the fatigue caused from holding the
throttle for extended periods of time.
On the opposite side, a two position “Limiter” control allows full engine speed when set for “Turbo” or limits the throttle to a
pre-set engine speed when set to low noise (dB) setting.
