WARNING
Make sure that the engine has stopped and
is cool before performing any service to the
blower. Contact with rotating blower fan or
hot muffler may result in a personal injury.
■ AIR FILTER
Check the air filter every 25 hours of use or more
frequently if used under dusty conditions. A
clogged air filter may increase fuel consumption
while cutting down the engine power. Never
operate the machine without the air filter or with
a deformed filter element because unfiltered
dusty air may quickly ruin the engine.
CLEANING AIR FILTER:
1. Remove the air filter cover and take out the filter.
Wash it clean in warm, soapy water. Ensure that
the filter is dry before refitting it.
2. Use neutral detergent and warm water to clean
the filter element. After cleaning, air dry the
element completely and moisten with a small
amount of 2 cycle motor oil.
■ FUEL FILTER
•
A clogged fuel filter may cause poor acceleration
of the engine. Check periodically to see if the
filter is clogged with dirt. The filter can be taken
out of the fueling port using a small wire hook.
Disconnect the filter assembly from the fuel pipe
and unhook the retainer to disassemble it. Clean
the components with gasoline.

■ Spark plug
•
After every 50 hours of operation, detach the
spark plug and remove dirt from the electrodes
with a wire brush or similar.
•
The correct electrode gap is 0.6 to 0.7mm.
•
When replacing plugs, use designated items.
0.6~0.7 mm
IMPORTANT
•
If too much fuel is absorbed or poor quality oil
is used, the spark plug electrodes become dirty,
making the engine harder to start.
•
Note that using any spark plug other than those
designated may result in the engine failing to
operate properly or in the engine becoming
overheated and damaged.
•
To install the spark plug, first turn the plug until it
is finger tight, then tighten it a quarter turn more
with a socket wrench.
■ MUFFLER
WARNING
•
Inspect periodically, the muffler for loose
fasteners, any damage or corrosion. If any
sign of exhaust leakage is found, stop
using the machine and have it repaired
immediately.
IMPORTANT
•
Before starting operation, always make sure
to check if the muffler is properly held by three
bolts to the cylinder. (Fastening Torque : 8~12
