STARTING/STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: The unit uses the INCREDI-PULL™ starting
system with MAX FIRE IGNITION™, which signifi-
cantly reduces the effort required to start the engine.
You must pull the starter rope out far enough to hear
the engine attempt to start. There is no need to pull
the rope briskly--there is no harsh resistance when
pulling. Be aware that this starting method is vastly
different from (and much easier than) what you may
be used to.
5. Pull starter 4 to 6 times-when unit starts move choke
to position 3. If unit fails to start move choke to posi-
tion 2 and pull 4-6 times until it starts. (Fig.13 & 14 )
6. Once engine starts move choke to position 3.
7. After unit starts apply 1/4 throttle slightly and slowly
then allow engine to warm up for 30 seconds.
8. Pull throttle to run.
NOTE: If engine fails to start after repeated attempts,
refer to Troubleshooting section.
NOTE: Always pull starter rope straight out. Pulling
starter at an angle will cause rope to rub against the eye-
let. This friction will cause the rope to fray and wear more
quickly. Always hold starter handle when rope retracts.
Never allow rope to snap back from extended position.
This could cause rope to snag or fray and also damage
the starter assembly.
COLD STARTS (below 55˚F)
1. Switch to “RUN (I)” position.
2. Prime 10 times.
3. Choke in position “ ”.
4. Do not press throttle lock or trigger.
5. Pull rope until engine starts should be 1-10 times.
6. Move choke to position “ ”.
7. After unit starts apply 1/4 throttle slightly and slowly
then allow engine to warm up for 30 seconds.
8. Press trigger to run.
IMPORTANT IDLING INFORMATION
In some cases due to operating conditions (altitude, tem-
perature etc.) your blower may need a slight adjustment
to the idle speed.
After warm up, If unit does not Idle after restarting 2
times, follow these steps to adjust idle.
1. Locate the idle adjustment screw (G) on the carbure-
tor (Figure 15).
2. Using a Phillips or slotted screwdriver - turn screw
1/4 to 1/2 turn clockwise (to the right). Unit should
then idle properly.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Emergency Stopping Procedure. When it is necessary
to stop blower engine immediately, DEPRESS the OFF
“STOP ” switch (A) until the engine stops completely
(Figure 16).
Normal Stopping Method. For normal stopping, release
trigger and allow engine to return to idle speed. Then
DEPRESS the OFF “STOP ” switch (A) until the engine
stops completely. (Figure 16)
STARTING A WARM ENGINE (Engine has been
stopped for no more than 15-20 minutes).
1. Set throttle latch (see step 2 for starting a cold
engine), pull starter rope briskly.
2. If engine does not start, or starts and then stops
