Make sure that the engine has stopped
and is cool before performing any
service to the blower. Contact with
rotating blower fan or hot muffler may
result in a personal injury.
■ AIR CLEANER
• Never operate the blower without an air
filter or with a deformed or broken filter
element because unfiltered dusty air
will quickly ruin the engine.
• Check the air cleaner every 25 hours
of use or more frequently if used
under dusty conditions. A clogged
air filter may increase fuel
consumption while cutting down the
engine power. Never operate the
blower without the air filter or with a
deformed filter element because
unfiltered dusty air may quickly ruin
the engine.
