tubes free of debris which can accumulate  
and restrict proper air flow.  
SPECIAL NOTICE: Exposure to vibra-  
tions through prolonged use of gasoline pow-  
ered hand tools could cause blood vessel or  
nerve damage in the fingers, hands, and  
joints of people prone to circulation disorders  
or abnormal swelling. Prolonged use in cold  
weather has been linked to blood vessel dam-  
age in otherwise healthy people. If symptoms  
occur such as numbness, pain, loss of  
strength, change in skin color or texture, or  
loss of feeling in the fingers, hands, or joints,  
discontinue the use of this tool and seek  
medical attention. An antivibration system  
does not guarantee the avoidance of these  
problems. Users who operate power tools on  
a continual and regular basis must monitor  
closely their physical condition and the condi-  
tion of this tool.  
D Never place any object in the air intake open-  
ing as this could restrict proper air flow and  
cause damage to the unit.  
D Never use for spreading chemicals, fertiliz-  
ers, or other substances which may contain  
toxic materials.  
D To avoid spreading fire, do not use near leaf  
or brush fires, fireplaces, barbecue pits,  
ashtrays, etc.  
D Use only for jobs explained in this manual.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE  
WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel  
information in the safety rules before you be-  
gin. If you do not understand the safety rules,  
do not attempt to fuel your unit. Call  
1-800-554-6723 .  
WARNING: When starting engine,  
hold the unit as illustrated. Do not set unit on any  
surface except a clean, hard area when starting  
engine or while engine is running. Debris such  
as gravel, sand, dust, grass, etc. could be  
picked up by the air intake and thrown out  
through the discharge opening, damaging the  
unit or property, or causing serious injury to by-  
standers or the operator.  
FUELING ENGINE  
WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly  
when refueling.  
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded  
gasoline. Before operation, gasoline must be  
mixed with a good quality synthetic 2-cycle  
air-cooled engine oil designed to be mixed at a  
ratio of 40:1. Poulan/Weed Eater brand  
synthetic oil is recommended. Mix gasoline and  
oil at a ratio of 40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by  
mixing 3.2 ounces of oil with 1 gallon of  
unleaded gasoline. DO NOT USE automotive  
oil or boat oil. These oils will cause engine  
damage. When mixing fuel, follow instructions  
printed on container. Once oil is added to  
gasoline, shake container momentarily to  
assure that the fuel is thoroughly mixed. Always  
read and follow the safety rules relating to fuel  
before fueling your unit.  
STARTING A COLD ENGINE (or a  
warm engine after running out of  
fuel)  
1. Move throttle lever to the  
position.  
2. Move choke lever to the FULL CHOKE  
position.  
3. Slowly press the primer button 8 times.  
T
IMPORTANT  
Experience indicates that alcohol blended  
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or  
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to  
separation and formation of acids during  
storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel  
system of an engine while in storage. To avoid  
engine problems, empty the fuel system  
before storage for 30 days or longer. Drain the  
gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the  
fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS  
The warranty on this unit does not cover items  
that have been subjected to operator abuse  
or negligence. To receive full value from the

Air Filter  
Cleaning the air filter:  
A dirty air filter decreases engine perform-  
ance and increases fuel consumption and  
harmful emissions. Always clean or replace  
air filter after every 5 hours of operation or  
yearly, whichever comes first.  
1. Clean the cover and the area around it to  
keep debris from falling into the carburetor  
chamber when the cover is removed.  
2. Remove parts as illustrated.  
NOTE: Do not clean filter in gasoline or other  
flammable solvent. Doing so can create a fire  
hazard or produce harmful evaporative emis-  
sions.  
CHECK FOR DAMAGED OR WORN  
PARTS  
Contact an authorized service dealer for re-  
placement of damaged or worn parts.  
S Fuel Tank -- Do not use unit if fuel tank shows  
signs of damage or leaks.  
3. Wash the filter in soap and water.  
4. Allow filter to dry.  
5. Apply a few drops of oil to the filter;  
squeeze filter to distribute oil.  
S Vacuum Bag -- Do not use vacuum bag if it  
is torn or damaged.

STORAGE  
Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in  
minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits  
during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel  
tank or fuel storage container. Follow the mix  
instructions found on stabilizer container. Run  
engine at least 5 minutes after adding stabilizer.  
WARNING: Perform the following  
steps after each use:

where fuel vapors cannot reach sparks or  
open flames from water heaters, electric  
motors or switches, furnaces, etc.  
S Store unit with all guards in place. Position  
unit so that any sharp object cannot acci-  
dentally cause injury.
