two socket head cap screws from the nose
piece (see Figure 2).
2. Pivot the magazine and handle assembly
away from the motor assembly (see
Figure 2).
3. Remove the cap and air filter. Unscrew the
four socket head cap screws (see Figure 3).
4. Gently tilt the handle and magazine assembly
away from the motor assembly. Pull the two
assemblies apart (see Figure 4).
Carefully separate
these two assemblies.
Make sure that the fan does not scratch
the combustion chamber. Carefully set the
handle and magazine assembly down so that
you do not damage the fan blades or bend
the fan motor shaft.
The tool is now separated into two assemblies,
allowing access to the individual areas that
