maintenance
BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS, STOP ENGINE AND DISCONNECT SPARK
PLUG WIRE TO PREVENT INADVERTENT STARTING OF UNIT.
GENERAL:
• Follow implicitly the engine manufacturer’s recommendations for maintenance.
• Always keep your machine clean – especially the engine. Check all adjustments periodically. Also,
periodically check that all fasteners are secure.
• Never make any adjustments to the unit until the engine is off and the spark plug wire is disconnected.
• If carburetor adjustment is necessary, stand to one side and keep feet and hands in the clear while making
adjustments.
• Keep engine free of accumulations of grass, leaves or excessive grease. An accumulation of these
combustible materials may result in a fire.
• Store gasoline in a safe and approved container in a cool, dry place.
• Keep the unit and any fuel containers in locked storage to prevent children from playing and/or tampering
with them.
• Do not store gasoline powered equipment or fuel containers in a basement or any closed area where
heating or heat appliances or open pilot lights are present, unless the fuel is completely drained from the
power equipment and the fuel containers.
LUBRICATION:
• The tires on your blower contain bearings that should be lubricated on a weekly basis using a high-
performance, automotive quality grease to ensure long life and minimal wear.
