WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields during tool operation. If operation is dusty, also
wear a dust mask.
WARNING:
Before inspecting, cleaning, troubleshooting, or servicing
the machine, shut off engine, wait for all moving parts to
stop, and disconnect spark plug wire and move it away
from spark plug. Failure to follow these instructions can
result in serious personal injury or property damage.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, lubricant, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating lubricants, etc., come in con-
tact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.
Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be
repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should
be replaced at an Authorized Service Center.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient
amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under
normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrica-
tion is required.
SPARK PLUG
This engine uses a Champion RCJ6Y or equivalent spark
plug with .025 in. electrode gap. Use an exact replacement
and replace annually, or more frequently if necessary.
MAINTENANCE
Be careful not to cross-thread the spark plug. Cross-
threading will seriously damage the product.
CLEANING THE EXHAUST PORT AND
MUFFLER
Depending on the type of fuel used, the type and amount
of lubricant used, and/or your operating conditions, the
exhaust port and muffler may become blocked with carbon
deposits. If you notice a power loss with your gas powered
tool, you may need to remove these deposits to restore
performance. We highly recommended that only qualified
service technicians perform this service.
SPARK ARRESTOR
The spark arrestor must be replaced every 25 hours or
yearly to ensure proper performance of the product. Spark
arrestors may be in different locations depending on the
model purchased. Please contact the nearest service dealer
for servicing your spark arrestor.
Never run the blower without the spark arrestor in place.
Failure to do so could result in a fire that could cause
serious personal injury.
FUEL CAP
A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be replaced
immediately. Failure to do so could result in a fire that
could cause serious personal injury.
The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a check
valve. A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine per-
formance. If performance improves when the fuel cap is
loosened, the check valve may be faulty or filter clogged.
Replace the fuel cap if required.
STORING THE PRODUCT
Clean all foreign material from the product. Store it in a
well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. Keep
away from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals
and de-icing salts.
Abide by all Federal and local regulations for the safe
storage and handling of gasoline.
When storing 1 month or longer:
Drain all fuel from tank into a container approved for
gasoline. Run engine until it stops.
