To start an engine with vapor lock
Vapor lock occurs when the fuel in the fuel line or
carburetor vaporizes because of increased heat.
The product may have vapor lock if it does not restart in
an ambient temperature of more than 35°C (95°F) and it
has been shut off for 15-45 minutes.
1. Push the air purge bulb again and again for 10-15
seconds.
2. Move the choke lever to the HALF CHOKE position.
3. Pull the starter rope handle quickly until the engine
runs.
4. Let the engine warm up for 3 minutes at idle speed.
5. Move the choke lever to the NO CHOKE position.
To stop the engine
• Push and release the engine STOP switch. The
switch automatically returns to the ON position. Wait
7 seconds before you try to restart the product to
make sure that the switch resets.
To adjust the VX
1. Align the correct slot (A or B) on the outer VX
blower tube with the tab (C) on the inner tube. (Fig.
34)
Note: You cannot see the tab when the tubes are
assembled. You must feel the position of the tab as
you move the outer tube.
Note: Engage the tab in position "A" for a large
blower opening. A large blower opening moves wide
areas of dry leaves and other unwanted material.
Engage the tab in position "B" for a small blower
opening. A small blower opening makes air flow
faster to clean cracks and edging and to move heavy
material such as wet leaves.
2. Turn the outer tube as shown to disengage the tab
from the slot. (Fig. 35)
3. Move the outer tube along the inner tube to change
the position. (Fig. 36)
4. Turn the outer tube as shown until the tab is fully
engaged at the end of the correct slot location. (Fig.
37)
WARNING: Read and understand the safety
chapter before you clean, repair or do
