OPERATION / MAINTENANCE
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Read the Operator Manual and Engine Manual.
Become familiar with the controls, how each func-
tions, and what it operates.
2. Check the engine oil level and add if necessary.
3 Fill the fuel tank with good quality, clean, unleaded
regular gasoline (petrol). Use a funnel to avoid
spilling.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Air flow can be directed to the side or front by the
two-position deflector. The front discharge position is
used to remove debris from along walls, fences, etc.
The side discharge position is used to form windrows
or piles. The horizontal deflector directs air down
-
ward to “chisel” under wet, heavy leaves and litter.
Air velocity is regulated by the throttle setting.
Moving the deflector to the upper hole allows for a
greater volume of air to be directed downward.
Moving the deflector to the lower hole allows for a
greater volume of air to be directed upward.
To reduce windrowing or to blow over an obstacle,
point deflector upward.
Slight changes in deflector position will have a big
effect on air flow. Experiment until you find the best
position for your needs.
When clearing a yard or parking lot, a little time spent
planning how to blow it off can greatly reduce the
total clearing time.
To stop the machine, move the throttle control to the
slow position and switch the engine off.
Stop the engine when moving from work site to work
site. This will save fuel and prevent inadvertently
blowing debris where you don’t want to.
NOTE: When transporting machine by truck or trail
-
er, close the fuel valve. This avoids the possibility of
flooding should any dirt get under the carburetor float
needle. Leaving the valve open can allow severe
flooding which may ruin the engine by diluting the oil.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Stop engine and remove the spark plug wire before
performing any maintenance.
Keep blower air intake clear of debirs for best
performance.
Clear air discharge area of any debris accumulation.
Ensure machine has be shut off and fan is no longer
moving before clearing.
Keep all hardware tight.
Check oil level daily. Top off as needed.
Change engine oil after the first 5 hours of operation.
Then change as recommended by the engine
manufacturer.
1. Remove drain plug and drain oil while engine is
warm.
2. Replace drain plug, remove fill plug and fill with
new oil. Little Wonder recommends SAE 30 oil
whenever applicable.
3. Start and run engine for 30 seconds. Stop
engine.
4. Wait 30 seconds, then re-check oil level.
5. Top off if necessary. See engine manual for
details.
