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

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.
