• FUEL

Gasoline is very flamma-

ble. Avoid smoking or bringing any flame or
sparks near fuel. Make sure to stop the
engine and allow it cool before refueling the
unit. 

Select outdoor bare ground for fueling and
move at least 3 m (10 ft) away from the fuel-
ing point before starting the engine.

• The engines are lubricated by oil specially for-

mulated for air-cooled 2-cycle gasoline engine
use. Use an anti-oxidant added quality oil
expressly labeled for air-cooled 2-cycle engine
use (JASO FC GRADE OIL or ISO EGC
GRADE).

• Do not use BIA or TCW (2-stroke water-cool-

ing type) mixed oil.

• RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIO GASO-

LINE 50: OIL 1

• Exhaust emission are controlled by the funda-

mental engine parameters and components
(eq., carburation, ignition timing and port tim-
ing) without addition of any major hardware or
the introduction of an inert material during
combustion.

• These engines are certified to operate on

unleaded gasoline.

• Make sure to use gasoline with a minimum

octane number of 89RON (USA/Canada:
87AL).

• If you use a gasoline of a lower octane value

than prescribed, there is a danger that the

!

WARNING!

engine temperature may rise and an engine
problem such as piston seizing may conse-
quently occur.

• Unleaded gasoline is recommended to reduce

the contamination of the air for the sake of
your health and the environment.

• Poor quality gasolines or oils may damage

sealing rings, fuel lines or fuel tank of the
engine.

• HOW TO MIX FUEL

Pay attention to agitation.

1. Measure out the quantities of gasoline and oil

to be mixed.

2. Put some of the gasoline into a clean,

approved fuel container.

3. Pour in all of the oil and agitate well.

4. Pour in the rest of gasoline and agitate again

for at least one minute. As some oils may be
difficult to agitate depending on oil ingredi-
ents, sufficient agitation is necessary for the
engine to last long. Be careful that, if the agi-
tation is insufficient, there is an increased
danger of early piston seizing due to abnor-
mally lean mixture.

5. Put a clear indication on the outside of the

container to avoid mixing up with gasoline or
other containers.

6. Indicate the contents on outside of container

for easy identification.

• FUELING THE UNIT

1. Untwist and remove the fuel cap. Rest the

cap on a dustless place.

2. Put fuel into the fuel tank to 80% of the full

capacity.

3. Fasten the fuel cap securely and wipe up any

fuel spillage around the unit.

1. Select flat and bare ground for fueling.
2. Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from

the fueling point before starting the
engine.

3. Stop the engine before refueling the unit.

At that time, be sure to sufficiently agitate
the mixed gasoline in the container.

• FOR YOUR ENGINE LIFE, AVOID:

1. FUEL WITH NO OIL (RAW GASOLINE) – It will

cause severe damage to the internal engine
parts very quickly.

2. GASOHOL – It can cause deterioration of

rubber and/or plastic parts and disruption of
engine lubrication.

3. OIL FOR 4-CYCLE ENGINE USE – It can

cause spark plug fouling, exhaust port block-
ing, or piston ring sticking.

4.

Mixed fuels which have been left unused
for a period of one month

or more may clog

the carburetor and result in the engine failing
to operate properly.

5. In the case of storing the product for a long

period of time, clean the fuel tank after ren-
dering it empty. Next, activate the engine and
empty the carburetor of the composite fuel.

6. In the case of scrapping the used mixed oil

container, scrap it only at an authorized
repository site.

Moreover, normal wear and

change in product with no functional influence
are not covered by the warranty. Also, be careful
that, if the usage in the instruction manual is not
observed as to the mixed gasoline, etc.
described therein, it may not be covered by the
warranty..

any service to the blower. Contact with rotat-
ing blower fan or hot muffler may result in a
personal injury.

• CLEANING AIR FILTER:

Never operate the blower

without an air filter or with a deformed or broken
filter element. Check the air cleaner before use.
A clogged air filter may increase fuel consump-
tion while cutting down the engine power. Never
operate the blower without the air filter or with a
deformed filter element because unfiltered dusty
air will quickly ruin the engine.

1. Remove the air cleaner cover by pushing and

pulling back the tab on the top.

2. Use neutral detergent and warm water to

clean the filter element. After cleaning, air dry
the element completely.

3. Install the filter element into the air cleaner

or shrunk, replace with a new one.

• FUEL FILTER

A clogged fuel filter may cause poor acceleration
of the engine. 
Check periodically to see if the filter is clogged
with dirt. 

The filter can be taken out of the fueling port
using a small wire hook. Disconnect the filter
assembly from the fuel pipe and unhook the
retainer to disassemble it. 
Clean the components with gasoline.

• SPARK PLUG

The spark gap should be adjusted to .025 in
(0.6~0.7mm). 

Plug manufacturers recommend replacing the
plug twice a year to avoid unexpected plug fail-
ure in a job.

Note that using any spark

plugs other than those designated 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

Inspect periodically, the

muffler for loose fasteners, any damage or
corrosion. If any sign of exhaust leakage is
found, do not use the blower and have it
repaired immediately. Note that failing to do
so may result in the engine catching on fire.

Before starting operation, always make sure to
check if the muffler is properly held by three
bolts to the cylinder. (Fastening Torque: 8~12
Nm).
Even if one bolt out of three bolts is loose, the
muffler may get loose during operation which
may result in engine catching on fire.

Procedures to be performed after every 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 cylinder exhaust port at the
same time.

!

WARNING!

IMPORTANT

2. Tighten all screws, bolts, and fittings.

• SPARK ARRESTER

The engine is equipped with a spark arresting
screen at the exhaust port. Periodically check
and keep it in good condition.  

• AIR INTAKE SCREEN (AIR INLET NET)

Blowing air is taken in from the air inlet net.
When air flow has dropped down during opera-
tion, 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 damaged.

Never use the blower with-

out the net of the blower. Before each use,
check that the net is attached in place and is
free from any damage.

• STORAGE

1. Drain a fuel tank and push the primer bulb

until it becomes empty of fuel.

2. Remove the spark plug and drop a spoonful

of 2-cycle oil into the cylider. Crank the
