STEP #6) Warming up the engine.
When the engine has started, slowly move
the "CHOKE LEVER" fully upward to the
open position. Allow the engine to
"WARM-UP" at less than 1/2 speed.
If a MARUYAMA engine fails to start after following the above procedures, contact an authorized
MARUYAMA dealer.
BLOWER OPERATION
When the engine has warmed-up, the power blower can be positioned on the back of the operator.
When the power blower is positioned and ready for operation, adjust the throttle to a speed
required to accomplish the task.

OPERATING POSITION

• Never operate a power blower without proper guards or other protective safety devices in place.
A WARNING
To prevent overheating and engine seizure, cooling air comes from the rear grille of the fan housing
and is pushed by the blower fan through an opening in the fan housing over the cylinder fin area,
taking away combustion heat. The grille and cylinder fins must be kept clean of grass, dust and any
debris. Engine failure due to lack of this "Normal Maintenance• is not covered
by
warranty.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Always run the engine at idle speed for a few minutes to allow cooling before stopping. To stop the
engine, move the throttle control lever all the way to the engine idle position, then move the stop
switch to the "STOP" position.
