MAiNTENANCE
front Wheel Swivel
This blower has a multi-function front wheel that can be locked in
the front facing position or unlocked to swivel.
1. Pull up on the swivel lock lever and turn it a quarter turn to
lock into the slot in the up position. This will allow the wheel
to swivel 360 degrees.
2. To put the wheel back into the locked forward-facing position,
pull up on the swivel lock lever and turn it back a quarter of
a turn and let it seat back into the down position with the pin
locking into the hole on the wheel bracket. The wheel is now
locked into the front facing position.
Operation at high Altitude
The density of air at high altitudes is lower than at sea level.
Engine power is reduced as the air mass and air-fuel ratio
decrease. Engine power and output will be reduced approximately
3½% for every 1000 ft. of elevation above sea level. At high
altitudes increased exhaust emissions can also result due to the
increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio. Other high-altitude
issues can include hard starting, increased fuel consumption and
spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power
loss, CPE can provide a high-altitude carburetor main jet. The
alternative main jet and installation instructions can be obtained
by contacting our Technical Support Team. Installation instructions
are also available in the Technical Bulletin area of the CPE website.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the
application of the high-altitude carburetor main jet is listed in the
following table.
In order to select the correct high-altitude main jet, it is necessary
to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose, a code is
stamped on the side of the carburetor.
Select the correct high-altitude jet part number corresponding to
the carburetor code found on your particular carburetor.

WARNiNG
Operation using the alternative main jet at elevations lower
than the recommended minimum altitude can damage the
engine. For operation at lower elevations, the originally
supplied standard main jet must be used. Operating the
engine with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude
may increase its emissions and decrease fuel efficiency and
performance.
MAiNTENANCE
Make certain that the blower is kept clean and stored properly.
Only operate the unit on a flat, level surface in a clean, dry
operating environment. DO NOT expose the unit to extreme
conditions, excessive dust, dirt, moisture or corrosive vapors.
The owner/operator is responsible for all periodic maintenance.
Complete all scheduled maintenance in a timely manner. Correct
any issue before operating the blower. For service or parts
assistance, contact our help line at 1-877-338-0999.
WARNiNG
Never operate a damaged or defective blower. Improper
maintenance will void your warranty.
