Section 4 Oil and Fuel NOTE: This unit is equipped with a 2-stroke engine that must always run on a mixture of gas and oil.

Stop Switch Close Open Operate this unit only in a well ventilated outdoor area. Carbon monoxide exhaust fumes can be lethal in a confined area. Avoid accidental starting. Make sure you are in the starting position when pulling the starter rope.
• Watch out for children, pets, open windows or freshly washed cars, and blow debris safely away. • Use the full blower nozzle extension so the air stream can work close to the ground. • Make sure the air intake is not blocked. A blocked intake will reduce the air blowing capacity and increase the engine’s temperature.
To avoid serious personal injury, always turn your blower off and allow it to cool before you clean or service it. Daily Maintenance 1. Clean the unit’s exterior. 2. Check that the throttle control functions safely. 3. Check that the stop switch is functioning properly.
