Maintenance and Care 4. Maintenance and Care 4.1 General Maintenance Hints After a running in period of approx. 5 hours, all accessible screws and nuts (except for carburetor mixture adjustment needles) have to be checked and re-tightened if required. Any service jobs, other than those described in this manual, should only be carried out by an authorized service center.
4.3 Spark Plug The correct spark plug with thermal range 200 is available under the following brands: BOSCH CHAMPION RCJ-6Y or similar The correct electrode gap is 0.5 mm. Check the plug after every 50 operating hours and replace if electrodes are worn. 4.4 Preparation for Storage Store the motorized mistblower in a dry room.
4.6 Air Filter Maintenance The air filter separates and retains dirt before the air reaches the combustion chamber. This reduces engine wear. Fig. 3a, Type 444 Fig. 3b, Type 450 Regular maintenance increases engine life. Clogged air filters cause performance loss and increased fuel consumption.
Assembly 5. Assembly Fig. 4 Completely assembly the mistblower before its first use: 5.1 Assembly of misting equipment Attach the blower elbow (1) to the blower housing and secure with both screws (Fig.4D; A+B). Ensure the elbow can swivel easily.

7. Operating Hints Before every use and before every start of the mistblower check and ensure the machine is in good and safe condition. (throttle operation, ignition switch, safety devices, shoulder strap and check for fuel leaks). • During the starting procedure and while operating the mistblower, the operator must have secure footing and have a safe body position.
Wide-range nozzle (7): Fig. 9 When spraying plants and trees we recommend fixing the wide-range nozzle (7) onto the red standard nozzle (4). This ensures that a large area can be sprayed at one time. Push the wide-range nozzle onto the standard nozzle, until the bead engages.
Should the actual value be too high, the metering body may be worn or damaged. In that case, replace the metering body with a new one (part no.:40 74 165). When using accessory sets (liquid pump part no.: type 444 44 00 114, type 450 accessory, part no.: 49 00 479) a strainer will be integrated into the tank connector.
