Blower Operation
1.
While operating the blower, adjust the throttle trigger / throttle
lever so that the wind force is appropriate for the work location and
conditions.
2.
Adjusting engine speed.
For tube throttle model:
Engine speed increases by pulling the
throttle trigger. To decrease the engine speed, loosen the throttle
trigger.

Transporting the blower
CAUTION:
When transporting the blower, be sure to stop
the engine.
NOTICE:
Do not sit or stand on the blower or put a heavy
object on it.
It may damage the machine.
NOTICE:
Maintain the blower in an upright position whenever
transporting or storing.
Transporting or storing in a position that
is not upright may cause oil to spill inside the blower engine. This
may result in oil leaks and white smoke from burning oil, and the air
cleaner may become dirty with oil.
NOTICE:
Do not drag the blower when transporting.
Otherwise
the blower housing may be damaged.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Before inspection and maintenance, stop the
engine and allow it to cool down. Remove the spark plug and
plug cap.
Otherwise the operator may suffer burn or serious injury
due to an accidental start-up.
CAUTION:
After inspection and maintenance, make sure
that all parts are assembled.
Replacing engine oil
CAUTION:
The engine main unit and engine oil still remain
hot just after the engine is stopped. When replacing engine oil,
make sure that the engine main unit and engine oil are suffi
-
ciently cooled down.
Otherwise, there may remain a risk of scald.
Allow sufficient time after stopping engine for the engine oil to return
to the oil tank to ensure accurate reading of the oil level indicator.
CAUTION:
If the oil filled above the limit, it may become
dirty or may catch fire with white smoke.
NOTICE:
Never discard replaced engine oil in garbage,
ground or sewage.
Disposal of oil is regulated by law. In disposal,
always follow the relevant laws and regulations. For any points
remaining unknown, contact Authorized Service Agent.
NOTICE:
Oil will deteriorate even when it is kept unused.
Perform inspection and replacement at regular intervals (replace
with new oil every 6 months).
Deteriorated engine oil shortens the life of the sliding and rotating
parts to a great extent. Be sure to check the period and quantity of
replacement.
Interval of replacement
After first 20 operating hours, followed by every 50 operating hours
Recommended oil
