Before you use your new Powervac
™
, read the following helpful hints to
get you started.
Fueling
WARNING:
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable and
explosive. To prevent serious personal injury and
property damage, handle it with care. Keep away
from ignition sources and open flames, handle
outdoors only, do not smoke and wipe up spills
immediately.
1. Obtain a clean container that is approved for use with gasoline.
2. Mix all of the 2-cycle oil provided with 1 US gallon of 87-octane, unleaded
gasoline (50:1).
3. Fill the blower’s fuel tank carefully.
Cold Starting vs. Warm Starting
When you restart the blower and you are not sure whether the engine is still warm, set the choke
lever to
RUN
,
lock the throttle wide open, and pull the recoil starter grip. If the engine does not start
within 5 pulls, refer to “To Start a Cold Engine” later in this manual.
Flooded Engine
If the engine does not start, it may be flooded. Relax, this is easy to correct. Set the choke lever to
RUN
. Lock the throttle wide open and pull the recoil starter grip quickly for 10 to 12 pulls.
If the engine still does not start, refer to “Troubleshooting” later in this manual.
