Your ECHO unit is designed to provide many hours of trouble-free service. Regular scheduled maintenance will help 

your unit achieve that goal. If you are unsure or are not equipped with the necessary tools, you may want to take your 

unit to an ECHO Service Dealer for maintenance.  To help you decide whether you want to DO-IT-YOURSELF or have 

the ECHO Dealer do it, each maintenance task has been graded. If a task is not listed, see your ECHO Dealer for repairs.

  

 WARNING

Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries.  Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all 

openings.  Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts have come to a complete 

stop before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit. Allow unit to cool before performing service. 

Wear gloves to protect hands from sharp edges and hot surfaces.
