OPERATION
Always wear safety glasses, hearing protection and a face filter
mask or serious personal injury may result. Do not point the
blower pipe in the direction of people or pets.
Use reduced speed only when performing light-duty tasks or to
comply with local noise regulations. Continuous low speed operation
may allow fuel/oil residue to build-up on the piston and cause rapid
build-up of carbon on the spark arrestor screen, resulting in
overheating and engine damage. To reduce harmful build-up, run
engine at wide open throttle for at least 5 minutes every hour, and
inspect/clean the spark arrestor screen after approximately 40 hours
of operation.
Read the Safety Section carefully.
To avoid engine damage due to over-revving, do not block blower
pipe.
1. Use only during appropriate
hours.
2. Allow the engine to warm up at a
fast idle for a few minutes.
3. Set engine speed with throttle
position lever (A).
4. Use lower speed to blow dry
grass and leaves from walks,
patios and drives.
5. Additional speed may be
necessary to clean leaves from a
lawn or flower bed.
6. Higher speed may be necessary to move gravel, dirt, snow, bottles or
cans from a driveway, street, parking lot or stadium.
Note: Never use a higher speed setting than necessary to perform a
task. Remember, the higher the engine speed, the louder the
blower noise. Minimize dust by using blower at lower speeds.
Keep debris on your property. Be Smart - be a good neighbor.
