Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use this
unit.
Never start or run the engine inside a closed area;
breathing exhaust fumes can kill.
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.
Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 50 ft.
away.
Wear heavy long pants, long sleeves, boots, and gloves.
Do not wear loose fitting clothing, short pants, sandals,
jewelry of any kind, or go barefoot.
To reduce the risk of injury associated with objects being
drawn into rotating parts, do not wear loose clothing,
scarves, neck chains, etc.
Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent
entanglement in any rotating parts.
Do not operate this unit when you are tired, ill, or under
the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Do not operate in poor lighting.
Keep all parts of your body away from any moving parts
and all hot surfaces of the unit.
Wear a face filter mask in dusty conditions to reduce the
risk of injury associated with the inhalation of dust.
Check the work area before each use. Remove all objects
such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string which
can be thrown or become entangled in the machine.
Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach.
Overreaching can result in loss of balance or exposure
to hot surfaces.
Never operate the unit without a spark arrestor screen;
this screen is located inside the muffler.
Product users on United States Forest Service land, and in
some states, must comply with fire prevention regulations.
This product is equipped with a spark arrestor; however,
other user requirements may apply. Check with the
federal, state, or local authorities in your area.
Before storing, allow the engine to cool.
Empty fuel tank into a container approved for gasoline
and restrain the unit from moving before transporting in
a vehicle.
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury, handle fuel with
care. It is highly flammable.
Do not smoke while handling fuel.
Mix and store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.
Mix fuel outdoors where there are no sparks or flames.
Select bare ground, stop engine, and allow to cool before
refueling.
Loosen fuel cap slowly to release pressure and to keep
fuel from escaping around the cap.
Tighten the fuel cap securely after refueling.
Wipe spilled fuel from the unit. Move 30 ft. away from
refueling site before starting engine.
Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel under any
circumstances.
Use only identical manufacturer’s replacement parts and

MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts can 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, 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 con-
tact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which could result in serious personal injury.
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.
WARNING:
Be careful not to cross-thread the spark plug. Cross-
threading will seriously damage the product.
CLEANING THE EXHAUST PORT, MUFFLER,
AND SPARK ARRESTOR
NOTE: Depending on the type of fuel used, the type and
amount of lubricant used, and/or your operating conditions, the
exhaust port, muffler, and/or spark arrestor screen may be-
come 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 recom-
mend that only qualified service technicians perform this
service.
The spark arrestor must be cleaned or replaced every 50
hours or yearly to ensure proper performance of your prod-
uct. Spark arrestors may be in different locations depending
on the model purchased. Please contact your nearest service
dealer for the location of the spark arrestor for your model.
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, TANK, AND LINES
WARNING:
Check for fuel leaks. A leaking fuel cap, tank, or lines
are 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.
