manual abstract
Never blow directly into the center of a pile. • Operate power equipment at reasonable hours only — not early in the morning or late at night when people might be disturbed. Comply with the times listed in local ordinances. • To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of equipment used at any one time. • Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed to do the job. • Check your equipment before operation, especially the muffler, air intakes, and air filters. • Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing. In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water is available. • Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses for many lawn and garden applications, including areas such as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens. • Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly washed cars, and blow debris safely away. • Use the nozzle for larger volume, so the air stream can work close to the ground. • After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP! Dispose of debris properly. WARNING: Do not place blower on top of or near loose debris. Debris may be sucked into blower intake vent resulting in serious personal injury and possible damage to the unit. CRUISE CONTROL See Figure 11. The cruise control can be used to operate the blower without holding the throttle trigger. To engage the cruise control: • Pull cruise control lever back toward user, and stop at the desired throttle setting. • To release the cruise control, push cruise control lever all the way toward the front of unit. 9 — English MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE WARNING: When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage. WARNING: Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1, along with hearing protection. Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes and other possible serious injuries. WARNING: Before inspecting, cleaning, troubleshooting, or servicing the machine, shut off engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and disconnect spark plug wire and move it away from spark plug. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or property damage. GENERAL MAINTENANCE Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, lubricant, grease, etc. WARNING: Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum- based products, penetrating lubricants, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury. Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should be replaced at an Authorized Service Center. LUBRICATION All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required. SPARK PLUG This engine uses a Champion RCJ6Y or equivalent spark plug with .025 in. electrode gap. Use an exact replacement and replace annually, or more frequently if necessary. CAUTION: Be careful not to cross-thread the spark plug. Cross- threading will seriously damage the product. CLEANING THE EXHAUST PORT AND MUFFLER Depending on the type of fuel used, the type and amount of lubricant used, and/or your operating conditions, the exhaust port and muffler may become blocked with carbon deposits. If you notice a power loss with your gas powered tool, you may need to remove these deposits to restore performance. We highly recommended that only qualified service technicians perform this service. SPARK ARRESTOR The spark arrestor must be replaced every 25 hours or yearly to ensure proper performance of the product. Spark arrestors may be in different locations depending on the model purchased. Please contact the nearest Authorized Service Center for servicing your spark arrestor. WARNING: Never run the blower without the spark arrestor in place. Failure to do so could result in a fire that could cause serious personal injury. FUEL CAP WARNING: Check for fuel leaks. A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be replaced immediately. If you find any leaks, correct the problem before using the product. Failure to do so could result in a fire that could cause serious personal injury. The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a check valve. A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine performance. If performance improves when the fuel cap is loosened, the check valve may be faulty or filter clogged. Replace the fuel cap if required.
