outer edge of the debris. To avoid clogging, do not
place the vacuum tube directly into the debris pile.
Hold the engine higher than the inlet end of the
Q
vacuum tube.
Always point vacuum tube downhill when working on
Q
a hillside.
To avoid serious injury to the operator or damage to
Q
the unit, do not pick up rocks, broken glass, bottles,
or other similar objects.
If the vacuum tubes should clog, stop the engine,
Q
ensure impeller blades have stopped spinning, and
disconnect the spark plug wire before cleaning out
the obstruction.
Remove the vacuum tubes and clear the debris from
Q
the blower fan housing. Remove the bag and clear
the tube. A small rod or stick may be required to clear
the entire tube length. Ensure that all debris has
been cleared before reassembling the vacuum tubes.

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 EN166, 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, petrol,
petroleum-based products, penetrating
lubricants, etc., come in con tact with plastic
parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious
personal injury.
You can often make adjustments and repairs described
here. For other repairs, have the blower/vacuum serviced
by an authorized service dealer.

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 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 recommend 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
product. 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:
To avoid a fire hazard, never run the blower/
vacuum without the spark arrestor in place.
VACUUM BAG
A dirty bag will reduce performance. To clean the bag,
turn it inside out and shake. Wash the bag in soapy water
at least once a year.
FUEL CAP
WARNING:
A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be
replaced immediately.
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, check valve may be faulty or filter clogged.
Replace fuel cap if required.
SPARK PLUG REPLACEMENT
This engine uses a Ryobi AC00160, Champion RCJ-6Y
or NGK BPMR7A spark plug with .025 in. electrode gap.
Use an exact replacement and replace annually.
