CLEANING THE UNIT
WARNING: To avoid serious personal
injury, always turn the unit off and allow it
to cool before you clean or perform any
maintenance on it.
• Use a small brush to clean off the outside of the unit
and to keep the air vents free of obstructions.
• Do not use strong detergents or petroleum based
cleaners, such as kerosene. Some household
cleaners contain aromatic oils such as pine and
lemon that can damage the plastic housings or
handles. Wipe off any moisture with a soft cloth.
CLEANING THE VACUUM BAG
1. Empty the bag after each use to avoid deterioration
and obstructing air flow, which will reduce the
performance of the vacuum.
2. Wearing eye protection and a dust mask, clean the
bag as needed. Turn the bag inside out after initial
emptying and vigorously shake out dust and debris.
3. Wash the bag once a year or more often if needed:
a. Remove the vacuum bag.
b. Turn bag inside out.
c. Hang up.
d. Hose down thoroughly.
e. Hang to dry.
f. Turn bag right-side out and reinstall.
STORAGE
• Store the unit indoors, away from moisture and
harmful substances such as fertilizers and solvents.
• Never store the unit with petrol (gasoline) in the tank
where fumes may reach an open flame or spark.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing.
• Store the unit locked up area to prevent
unauthorized use or damage.
• Store the unit in a dry, well ventilated area.
• Store the unit out of the reach of children.
LONG TERM STORAGE
If the unit will be stored for an extended time,
1. Drain all fuel from the fuel tank into a container. Do
not use fuel that has been stored for more than 60
days. Dispose of the old fuel in accordance to local
regulations.
2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it stalls. This
ensures that all fuel has been drained from the
carburetor.
3. Allow the engine to cool. Remove the spark plug and
put 1 oz. (30 ml.) of high quality motor oil into the
cylinder. Pull the starter rope slowly to distribute the
oil. Reinstall the spark plug.
NOTE: Remove the spark plug and drain all of the oil
from the cylinder before attempting to start the
blower/vacuum after storage.
4. Thoroughly clean the unit and inspect for any loose
or damaged parts. Repair or replace damaged parts
and tighten loose screws, nuts or bolts. The unit is
ready for storage.
TRANSPORTING
• Allow the engine to cool before transporting.
• Secure the unit while transporting.
• Drain the fuel tank before transporting.
