NOTE:
The unit uses the
Spring Assist
TM
starting sys-
tem, which significantly reduces the effort required to
start the engine. You must pull the starter rope out far
enough to hear the engine attempt to start. There is
no need to pull the rope briskly--there is no harsh
resistance when pulling. Be aware that this starting
method is vastly different from (and much easier than)
what you may be used to.
5. Move choke lever to “2” (Fig.13)
6. Pull starter rope again 1~6 times (Fig.14)
7. The engine should start. After 30 sec. Move choke to
“3”.(Fig.15)
8. Squeeze throttle and release to disengage lock ; Unit
is now at idle.(Fig.9)
NOTE:
If engine fails to start after repeated attempts,
refer to Troubleshooting section.
NOTE:
Always pull starter rope straight out. Pulling
starter at an angle will cause rope to rub against the eye-
let. This friction will cause the rope to fray and wear more
quickly. Always hold starter handle when rope retracts.
Never allow rope to snap back from extended position.
This could cause rope to snag or fray and also damage
the starter assembly.
IMPORTANT IDLING INFORMATION
In some cases due to operating conditions (altitude, tem-
perature etc.) your blower may need a slight adjustment
to the idle speed.
After warm up, If unit does not Idle after restarting 2
times, follow these steps to adjust idle.
1. Locate the idle adjustment screw (E) on the carbure-
tor (Figure 16).
2. Using a Phillips or slotted screwdriver - turn screw
1/4 to 1/2 turn clockwise (to the right). Unit should
then idle properly.
