OPERATION METHOD
1. Adjusting Shoulder strap
Adjust the shoulder strap to a length that is comfortable to work while
carrying the blower.
Adjust as shown in the figure.
2. Adjusting the control lever
Move the control handle along the swivel pipe to the most comfortable
position.
3. Blower operation
While operating the blower, adjust the throttle bar so that the wind force is
appropriate for the work location and conditions.
Low speed: Dried leaves and grass
High speed: Gravel and dirt
The cruise control level allows the operator to maintain a constant engine
RPM without operating the trigger lever.
Lifting the cruise control lever increases engine RPM.
Lowering the cruise control lever decreases RPM.
Adjusting engine RPM when the cruise control lever is being used:
When increasing RPM:
Pull the trigger lever to increase engine RPM. Engine RPM returns to its
original setting when the trigger lever is released.
Increasing the RPM in this manner also increases the cruise control
setting. The cruise control lever lifts simultaneously as the trigger lever is
pulled, and the new cruise control setting will be maintained at the
higher RPM.
When reducing engine RPM:
Lower the cruise control lever to the low-speed position.
TRANSPORTING AND STORING THE BLOWER
Please maintain the blower in an upright position whenever transporting or
storing. (Refer to Figure at right.)
Transporting or storing in a position that is not upright may cause oil to spill
inside the blower engine. This may result in oil leaks and white smoke from
burning oil, and the air cleaner may become dirty with oil.
• When transporting the blower, be sure to stop the engine.
