Use and Care Manual

OPERATION PB-2620

26 X7501190601

Use reduced speed only when

performing light-duty tasks or to

comply with local noise

regulations. Continuous low

speed operation may allow fuel/oil

residue to build-up on the piston

and cause rapid build-up of

carbon on the spark arrestor

screen, resulting in overheating

and engine damage. To reduce

harmful build-up, run engine at

wide open throttle for at least 5 minutes every hour, and inspect/clean

the spark arrestor screen after approximately 40 hours of operation.

Read the Safety Section carefully.

To avoid engine damage due to over-revving, do not block blower

pipe.

1. Use only during appropriate hours.

2. Allow the engine to warm up at a fast idle for a few

minutes.

3. Control engine speed with

throttle trigger (A), or for

continuous use, set engine

speed with throttle position

lever (B). Rotate throttle

position lever forward for lower

speed, back for higher speed.

4. Use lower speed to blow debris

from hard surfaces.

5. Additional speed may be

necessary to clean debris,

snow, etc. from lawns and

flowerbeds.
