PROCEDURES TO BE PERFORMED AFTER EV-
ERY 100 HOURS OF USE
1. Remove the muffler, insert a screwdriver into the vent,
and wipe away any carbon buildup. Wipe away any
carbon buildup on the muffler exhaust vent and cylin-
der exhaust port at the same time.
2. Tighten all screws, bolts, and fittings.
AIR INLET NET
IMPORTANT
•Blowing air is taken in from the air inlet net. When air
flow has dropped down during operation, stop the
engine and inspect the air inlet net for blocking by
obstacles.
• Note that failure to remove any such obstacles may
result in the engine becoming overheated and dam-
aged.

(1)Net
WARNING
Never use the blower without the net of the blower.
Before each use, check that the net is attached in
place and is free from any damage.

(1) Bolt
(2) Spark Arrester
REPLACEMENT PLUG
NGK BPMR7A
IMPORTANT
• Note that using any spark plugs other than those des-
ignated may result in the engine failing to operate
properly or in the engine becoming overheated and
damaged.
•To install the spark plug, first turn the plug until it is
finger tight, then tighten it a quarter turn more with a
socket wrench.
MUFFLER
WARNING
• Inspect periodically, the muffler for loose fasteners,
any damage or corrosion. If any sign of exhaust leak-
age is found, do not use the blower and have it re-
paired immediately.
• Note that failing to do so may result in the engine
catching on fire.
IMPORTANT
• Before starting operation, always make sure to check
if the muffler is properly held by three bolts to the cyl-
inder and crank case. (Fastening Torque : 8~12 N·m)
•Also make sure that the spark arrester and the dif-
fuser are properly attached with four bolts (Fastening
Torque : 2~3 N·m)
• Even if one of seven bolts is loose, it may result in
engine catching on fire.
SPARK ARRESTER
• The muffler is equipped with a spark arrester to pre-
vent red hot carbon from flying out of the exhaust out-
let. Periodically inspect and clean as necessary with
a wire brush. In the State of California it is required by
law (Section 4442 of the California Pulic Resources
Code) to equip a spark arrester when a gas powered
tool is used in any forest covered, bush covered, or
grass covered unimproved land.
NOTE
Fit the Spark Arrester on the pipe and tightly fix with the
clip
