After engine warms up, adjust the throttle to
adequately clean your surface.
Push down the brush engagement lever to activate
the brush rotation.
Push down the forward engagement lever to move
forwards or pull up the reverse engagement lever to
move backwards.
The power sweeper is equipped with a dead man’s
handle, which means that when you release the levers,
the brush and machine stop.
In case of accidents you should release the levers as
quickly as possible and stop the engine.
The brush can be swung 20 degrees to either side.
Press the brush direction control lever; turn the brush
to the desired angle, release the steering lever and
the catch will fall correctly into place.
OPERATING
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERFILL!
This equipment and/or its engine may include
evaporative emissions control system components,
required to meet EPA and/or CARB regulations, that
will only function properly when the fuel tank has
been filled to the recommended level. Overfilling
may cause permanent damage to evaporative
emissions control system components. Filling to the
recommended level ensures a vapor gap required to
allow for fuel expansion. Pay close attention while
filling the fuel tank to ensure that the recommended
fuel level inside the tank is not exceeded. Use a
portable gasoline container with an appropriately
sized dispensing spout when filling the tank. Do not
use a funnel or other device that obstructs the view
of the tank filling process.
2. Remove the fuel filler cap and fill the tank. (See engine manual
for fuel capacity, fuel recommendation, and location of fuel cap.)
3. Reinstall the fuel cap and tighten. Always clean up spilled fuel.
If the engine is hot,
closing the choke is not
necessary.
4. Pull the recoil starter until engine compression has become
difficult to pull. Let the recoil return to the home position,
then pull quickly to start the engine. Repeat steps as needed.
Fully open the choke and set the throttle to the FAST position,
before operating the unit.
STARTING ENGINE
1. Move the engine switch to the
On position.
2. Open the fuel shut-off valve.
3. Move the choke lever to the
CLOSED position.

Set throttle control lever to its “SLOW” position to
reduce stress on the engine when working is not
being performed. Lowering the engine speed to idle
the engine will help extend the life of the engine, as
well as conserve fuel and reduce the noise level of the
machine.
IDLE SPEED
Fill the fuel tank outdoors, never indoors. Gasoline
vapors can ignite if they collect inside an enclosure.
Explosion can result.
1. The engine must be off and allowed to cool at least two minutes
before adding fuel.
