NOTICE
To prevent fuel gum deposits and corrosion in the Blower's
carburetor and fuel system, it is highly recommended to
use a fuel additive / stabilizer formulated for ethanol fuels.
Follow the stabilizer manufacturer's instructions. Run the
engine at least 5 minutes after adding stabilizer.
1. Allow engine to cool and empty the fuel tank before
storing or transporting in vehicle. Use up remaining fuel
in the carburetor by starting the engine and letting it run
until it stops. Squeeze primer bulb several times to purge
fuel from the carburetor.
2. When not in use, store Blower indoors in a dry
location. Store Blower in a locked area out of the
reach of children.
3. Store unit and fuel in area where fuel vapors cannot
reach sparks or open flames from water heaters,
electric motors or switches, furnaces, etc.

4. When preparing the Blower for storage or when
Blower will not be used for 30 days or more:
a. Inspect and clean the Blower thoroughly.
b. Lightly oil all external metal surfaces.
c. Remove the spark plug, place a few drops of
2-cycle engine oil into the cylinder. Pull the
recoil starter several times to distribute the oil.
Replace the spark plug.
d. Inspect and clean air filter as required.
5. The upper handle can be folded to reduce the
storage space required. To fold, loosen but do not
remove the upper two knobs retaining the saddle
screws. Remove the throttle cable from the two spring
clamps and move to left side of unit. Pull the upper
handle to the rear which will dis-engage the connector,
and fold the upper handle forward being careful not to
kink the throttle cable. Reassemble in the
reverse manner.
