HOLDIN G THE BLOWER / VACUUM
Before operating the unit, s tand in the operating po s ition. Chec k for the following:
• Operator i s wearing proper clothing, s uch a s boot s , s afety gla ss e s or goggle s , ear/hearing
protection, glove s , long pant s and long s leeve s hirt
• The unit i s in good wor k ing condition
• The tube s and guard s are in place and s ecure
USIN G THE CRUISE CONTROL
1. Once the engine ha s s tarted and warmed up, s queeze the trigger to
accelerate the unit a s needed (Fig. 13).
2. For longer period s of operation and to eliminate po ss ible finger fatigue,
move the crui s e control toward the FA S T po s ition to incrementally
increa s e or maintain the unit’ s engine s peed (Fig. 13). When the crui s e
control i s pre ss ed, the trigger will recede into the handle.
3. To decrea s e engine s peed, move the crui s e control to the S LOW
po s ition and the trigger will return to idle (Fig. 13).
OPERATIN G TIPS
• A ss ure the unit i s not directed at anybody or any loo s e debri s before s tarting the unit.
• Alway s hold the unit s ecurely when operating. Keep a firm grip on the handle.
• To reduce the ri sk of hearing lo ss a ss ociated with s ound level( s ), hearing protection i s required.
• Operate power equipment only at rea s onable hour s — not early in the morning or late at night when people
might be di s turbed. Comply with time s li s ted in local ordinance s . U s ual recommendation s are 9:00 am to
5:00 pm, Monday through S aturday.
• To reduce noi s e level s , limit the number of piece s of equipment u s ed at any one time.
• To reduce noi s e level s , operate power blower s at the lowe s t po ss ible s peed to do the job.
• Chec k your equipment before operation, e s pecially the muffler, air inta k e s and air filter s .
• U s e ra k e s and broom s to loo s en debri s before blowing.
• In du s ty condition s , s lightly dampen s urface s when water i s available.
• Watch out for children, pet s , open window s or fre s hly wa s hed car s , and blow debri s s afely away.
• Clean up after u s ing blower s and other equipment. Di s po s e of debri s appropriately.
OPERATIN G THE UNIT AS A BLOWER
U s e the blower for tree s , s hrub s , flower bed s and hard-to-clean area s .
Al s o u s e the unit around building s , wall s , overhang s , fence s and s creen s ,
and for other normal cleaning procedure s . Con s erve water by u s ing power
blower s in s tead of ho s e s for many lawn and garden application s , including
area s s uch a s gutter s , s creen s , patio s , grill s , porche s and garden s .
Hold the blower with the right hand. Do not s tand on the right s ide of the
blower when operating the unit (Fig. 14). If you do, you will be bloc k ing the
air inta k e and thi s will affect the unit’ s performance. In s tead, be s ure to
s tand on the left s ide of the unit to maximize the unit’ s efficiency (Fig. 14).
S weep from s ide to s ide with the nozzle s everal inche s above the ground
or floor. S lowly advance the unit, k eeping the accumulated pile of debri s in front of you.
Mo s t dry blowing operation s are better s uited to low s peed s , rather than high. High s peed blowing i s a
better way to move heavier item s li k e large debri s or gravel.
OPERATIN G THE UNIT AS A VACUUM
U s e the unit for vacuuming up light debri s li k e leave s and paper.
Be s ure the vacuum bag i s zipped clo s ed before operating the unit.
Place the s houlder harne ss over your head and onto your s houlder. Hold
the vacuum with both on hand s on the handle (Fig. 15), tilting the s uction
tube s lightly, and u s e a s weeping action to collect light debri s (Fig. 16).
The debri s will flow into the vacuum bag. Thing s s uch a s s mall leave s and
s mall twig s will be mulched a s they pa ss through the fan hou s ing, allowing
the vacuum bag to hold more debri s .
Emptying the Vacuum Bag
When the bag i s full, s uction will noticeably decrea s e. Turn off the unit and
allow the impeller to s top before you unzip the bag.
1. While wearing eye protection and a du s t ma sk , unzip the vacuum bag
and empty the content s into a garbage bag or container.
2. Turn the bag in s ide out after initial emptying and vigorou s ly s ha k e out
du s t and debri s .
3. Zip clo s e and rein s tall the vacuum bag.
NOTE: Empty the bag after each u s e to avoid deterioration and
ob s tructing air flow, which will reduce the performance of the vacuum.

WARNIN G :
Avoid s ituation s that could catch the vacuum bag on fire. Do not operate
near an open flame. Do not vacuum warm a s h from fireplace s , barbecue pit s , bru s h pile s ,
etc. Do not vacuum di s carded cigar s or cigarette s unle ss the cinder s are completely cool.
STARTIN G INSTRUCTIONS

OIL AND FUEL MIXIN G INSTRUCTIONS
Old and/or improperly mixed fuel are the main rea s on s for the unit not running properly. Be s ure to u s e
fre s h, clean unleaded fuel. Follow the in s truction s carefully for the proper fuel/oil mixture.
Definition of Blended Fuel s
Today' s fuel s are often a blend of ga s oline and oxygenate s s uch a s ethanol, methanol, or MTBE (ether).
Alcohol-blended fuel ab s orb s water. A s little a s 1% water in the fuel can ma k e fuel and oil s eparate. It
form s acid s when s tored. When u s ing alcohol-blended fuel, u s e fre s h fuel (le ss than 30 day s old).
U s ing Blended Fuel s
If you choo s e to u s e a blended fuel, or it s u s e i s unavoidable, follow
recommended precaution s :
• Alway s u s e the fre s h fuel mix explained in your operator' s manual
• U s e the fuel additive S TA-BIL® or an equivalent
• Alway s agitate the fuel mix before fueling the unit
• Drain the tan k and run the engine dry before s toring the unit
U s ing Fuel Additive s
The bottle of 2-cycle oil that came with your unit contain s a fuel additive which will help inhibit corro s ion
and minimize the formation of gum depo s it s . It i s recommended that you u s e our 2-cycle oil with thi s
unit. If unavailable, u s e a good 2-cycle oil de s igned for air-cooled engine s along with a fuel additive,
s uch a s S TA-BIL® Ga s S tabilizer or an equivalent. Add 0.8 oz. (23 ml) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel
according to the in s truction s on the container. NEVER add fuel additive s directly to the unit' s fuel tan k .
Thoroughly mix the proper ratio of 2-cycle engine oil with unleaded ga s oline in a s eparate fuel can. U s e
a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio. Do not mix them directly in the engine fuel tan k . S ee the table below for s pecific ga s
and oil mixing ratio s .
NOTE: One gallon (3.8 liter s ) of unleaded ga s oline mixed with one 3.2 oz. (95 ml) bottle of 2-cycle oil
ma k e s a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio.
NOTE: Di s po s e of the old fuel/oil mix in accordance with federal, s tate and local regulation s .
CAUTION:
For proper engine operation and maximum reliability, pay s trict attention to
the oil and fuel mixing in s truction s on the 2-cycle oil container. U s ing improperly mixed fuel
can s everely damage the engine.
