Echo VS2100 - Blower Manual

HOW TO GET THE BEST RESULTS

Your Echo Vac-Sac Model VS 2100 will give you efficient and satisfactory service, and long life if you follow these simple instructions:-

FILL THE ENGINE WITH CORRECT FUEL MIXTURE. Regular unleaded fuel mixed with Echo Power Blend™ 2-stroke oil OR a Two stroke, air-cooled engine oil meeting ISO-LEGD Standard (ISO/CD 13738), JASO FC or FD grade at a ratio of 50:1*. Do not use fuel containing methyl alcohol (methanol) or more than 10% of ethyl alcohol (ethanol).
Before using your Echo Vac-Sac ensure that the engine air cleaner element has been cleaned and is correctly located. In dusty conditions it may be necessary to clean this element frequently. Clean the element by rinsing in soapy water and allow to dry.
Attach bags correctly using this method and sequence:
- Attach round clip at top rear of outer bag to bag clip on handle.
- Open zip on outer bag. Place inner bag over your hand and push through the small opening on the outer bag until the inner bag has filled the outer bag. Make sure to retain at least 1 cm of the inner bag around the end of he outer bag front opening. Place the inner and outer bag onto the outlet section of volute using the Velcro straps. Close the zip on the outer bag. YOUR ECHO VACSAC IS NOW READY TO PERFORM YOUR OUTDOOR VACUUMING JOB.
You can raise or lower the unit to give you the best operating height for your conditions. By setting the lift/lower lever as required. The normal operating position is in the lower setting– housing may contact ground so take care on delicate surfaces.
In dusty conditions the inner bag is provided as a re-usable or disposable bag. If in dusty conditions you notice dust building up on the inside of the outer bag, or a drop in vacuuming efficiency, simply hit each side of the outer bag several times to clear the fabric of dust thus improving air flow and performance. If dust continues to be a problem use lower throttle setting.
To start the engine when cold, pull out the choke button on the engine, set the stop-start switch which is conveniently placed on the handle grip, to the start position, and pull the starting cord. When the engine fires press in the choke button. Your Vac-Sac is now ready to operate, you control the engine speed, and there fore vacuuming performance you require by the finger tip engine speed lever, placed also at the handle grip for convenience. Operation at full revolutions will naturally give you best performance however the level of dust output will be increased.

Whilst operating do not endeavour to vacuum up stones, pine bark, pieces of wood etc. which are much heavier than leaves and lighter twigs. Damage may be caused to the machine by such foreign objects. Remember your Echo Vac-Sac is designed as a machine to assist you primarily to vacuum leaves and maintain a clean and neat garden area.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Always fit bag to fan housing outlet before starting engine. This ensures that any object which may pass through the machine is collected, and does not harm the operator or any other person.
Always stop the engine before removing the bag for the same reasons as in 1 above.
Never place hands or any object inside the fan housing unless the engine is stopped completely. This will ensure that no damage is caused to either the operator or the fan. Before attempting to unblock the housing, remove spark plug lead from spark plug to prevent accidental starting. DO NOT pull starter cord while clearing housing. Failure to follow these warnings will result in injury.
ALWAYS USE THE CORRECT FUEL IN THIS ENGINE. THIS IS REGULAR UNLEADED PETROL MIXED WITH ECHO POWER BLEND OIL RATIO 50:1* USING – Ask your dealer for assistance if unsure.
Hearing protection and eye protection must be worn while operating any power equipment.
Clean after use.
