OPERATION
WARNING
Keep away from all hot surfaces of the blower.
Failure to do so could result in possible serious
personal injury.
Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed
■
to do the job.
Check your equipment before operation, especially
■
the muffler, air intakes and air filters.
Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before
■
blowing. In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces
when water is available.
Conserve water by using power blowers instead of
■
hoses for many lawn and garden applications,
including areas such as gutters, screens, patios,
grills, porches and gardens.
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.
After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
■
Dispose of debris in trash receptacles.
Use the wide sweeper nozzle for the everyday
■
blowing operation. This nozzle allows for more area
to be covered during the blowing operation.
See Figure 10.
The high velocity nozzle is great for wet sticky leaves.
■
It allows you to scrape wet leaves or debris while
operating the blower. See Figure 10.
CRUISE CONTROL (THROTTLE LOCK)
The cruise control (throttle lock) can be used to operate
the blower without holding the throttle trigger.
TO ENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL (Throttle Lock)
(See Figure 8.)
1. Turn the Cruise control knob (8) clockwise, toward the
back of the blower, and stop at the desired throttle
setting.
2. To release the Cruise control, depress and release the
throttle trigger (7).
VACUUM OPERATION
(See Figure 11.)
Install the vacuum tubes and bag, refer to "Installing
■
the Vacuum Bag" and "Installing the Vacuum Tubes"
earlier in this manual.
E I P NL S DK N FIN
English
Start the blower, refer to "Starting and Stopping"
■
earlier in this manual.
Place the leaf bag strap over the head and onto the
■
left shoulder. Hold the upper handle in your right hand
and the lower handle in your left hand.
Move the blower from side to side along outer edge of
■
the debris. To avoid clogging, do not place the
vacuum tube directly into the debris pile.
Hold the engine higher than the inlet end of the
■
vacuum tube.
Always point vacuum tube downhill when working on
■
a hillside.
To avoid injury to the operator or unit, do not pick up
■
rocks, broken glass, bottles, or other similar objects.
If the vacuum tubes should clog, stop the engine and
■
disconnect the spark plug wire before cleaning out
the obstruction.
Remove the vacuum tubes and clear the debris from
■
the blower fan housing. Remove the bag and clear
the tube. A small rod or stick may be required to clear
the entire tube length. Ensure that all debris has been
cleared before reassembling the vacuum tubes.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Use only original manufacturer's replacement
parts, accessories and attachments. Failure to
do so can cause possible injury, poor
performance and may void your warranty.
REPLACING AND CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
(See Figure 12.)
For proper performance and long life, keep air filter clean.
1. Push down on the latch (27) of the air filter cover (28);
carefully pull the top of the air filter cover so it pivots
away from the base (25).
2. Remove the air filter (26) and clean it in warm soapy
water. Rinse and let dry completely. For best
performance, replace the air filter annually.
3. Reinstall the air filter into the air filter base.
4. Pivot the cover back in place. Push the latch back into
the slot and ensure the cover is locked in place.
SPARK ARRESTOR
The muffler is equipped with a spark arrestor screen
inside muffler body. After extended use the screen can
become dirty and may need to have the muffler replaced
by an authorized servicing dealer.
