disturbed, such as late at night or early in the morning.
As a rule, operate units between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. on
weekdays and weekends.
• Operate the unit at the lowest possible throttle setting
that gets the job done.
• Make sure the silencer works well.
• Check the air intakes and the air filter to make sure the
unit is working properly.
• Use only one piece of equipment at a time.
• Wear hearing protection when operating the unit.
• Be a good neighbor. Keep debris on your property.
SP ARK ARRESTER SILENCER
The spark arrester silencer controls the exhaust noise and
prevents hot, glowing particles of carbon from leaving the
unit.
Make sure the spark arrester screen is in good repair and
properly seated in the silencer.
PHYSICAL CONDITION
Your judgement and/or dexterity may be impaired if you are
ill, are taking medication, and/or have taken alcohol or other
substances known to affect the way you would normally
function.
Operate this unit only if you are in good physical and mental
health.

HOT HUMID WEATHER
Heavy protective clothing can increase operator fatique
which may lead to heat stroke. Delay heavy work until the
temperature drops.
VIBRA TION AND COLD
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud's Phenomenon, which affects the fingers of certain individuals may
be brought about by exposure to vibration and cold. Exposure to vibration and cold may cause tingling and burning,
followed by loss of color and numbness in the fingers. The
following precautions are strongly recommended because
the minimum exposure which might trigger the ailment is
unknown.
• Keep your body warm, especially head and neck, feet and
ankles and hands and wrists.
• Maintain good blood circulation by performing vigorous
arm exercises during frequent work breaks and also by
not smoking.
• Limit the number of hours operation. Try to fill each day
with jobs where operating the unit or other hand-held
power equipment is not required.
• If you experience discomfort, redness and swelling of the
fingers followed by whitening and loss of feeling, consult
your physician before further exposing yourself to cold
and vibration.
REPETITIVE STRESS INJURIES
• It is believed that overusing the muscles and tendons of
the fingers, hands, arms and shoulders may cause sore-
ness, swelling, numbness, weakness and extreme pain to
the areas just mentioned.
EYE AND HEARING PROTECTION
• Wear eye protection goggles.
• Wear hearing protection. If this guideline is not followed,
hearing loss can occur.
WEAR PROPER CLOTHING
• Snug fitting, durable clothing should be worn. Trousers
should have long legs. DO NOT WEAR SHORTS.
• Do not wear loose fitting clothing, scarfs, neckties, jewelry
or any item that may be drawn or tangled in the fan.
• Wear shoes with non-skid soles. DO NOT wear open-toed
shoes or operate unit bare footed.
• Wear no-slip, heavy work gloves to improve your grip on
the handles. The gloves also help reduce the transmission
of machine vibration to your hands.
Certain repetitive hand activities may put you at a high risk
developing a repetitive stress injury (RSI).
To reduce the risk of RSI, do the following:
• Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended or twisted position.
• Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest your
hands.
• Reduce the speed and force in which you do the repetitive
movement.
• Do exercises to strengthen hand and arm muscles.
• See a doctor if you feel tingling, numbness or pain in your
fingers, hands, wrists or arms.
The sooner RSI is diagnosed, the more likely permanent
nerve and muscle damage can be prevented.

REDUCE CHANCES OF DAMAGE
• Before starting the job, check wind direction. Avoid blowing in the direction of open doors and windows, cars, pets,
children or anything that could be harmed by blowing
dust, leaves and debris.
• Use the full nozzle extension so the air stream is close to
the ground. This will get the job done quicker without kicking up a lot of dust.
• In dusty conditions, wet down surfaces to prevent blowing
up dust.
• Clean up after the job is done. Make sure no debris has
blown onto someone else's property. Collect any trash
and put it in a proper container.

SPARK PLUG
1. Check plug gap. Correct gap is 0.6 - 0.7 mm.
2. Inspect electrode for wear.
3. Inspect insulator for oil or other deposits.
4. Replace plug if needed and tighten to 15 - 17 N·m (150
to 170 kgf·cm).
0.6 - 0.7 mm
NOTE
Do not overtighten spark plug.
COOLING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
NOTE
To maintain proper engine operating temperatures, cooling
air must pass freely through the cylinder fin areas. This
flow of air carries combustion heat away from the engine.
Overheating and engine seizure can occur when:
• Air intakes are blocked preventing cooling air from reaching the cylinder, or
• Dust and grass build up on the outside of the cylinder.
This build up insulates the engine and prevents the heat
from leaving.
Removal of cooling passage blockages or cleaning of
cylinder fins is considered "Normal Maintenance." Any
resultant failure attributed to lack of maintenance is not
warranted.
The cooling system relies on cooling air entering the engine
through a grille located between the fuel tank and starter.
The cooling fan pushes this air through the cylinder area
and out the forward facing opening in the engine cover.
Intake grille
Exhaust diffuser
Spark arrester cover
Screen
Gasket
Remove accumulated debris from intake grille for cleaning.
SILENCER AND EXHAUST PORT
NOTE
Carbon deposits in cylinder exhaust port and silencer will
cause a drop in engine output and overheating. Silencer
exhaust port and screen must be checked.
1. Remove spark plug, engine cover, gasket and silencer.
2. Place piston at top dead center. Clean deposit from
silencer and cylinder exhaust port.
NOTE
Be careful not to scratch the cylinder or piston when cleaning the cylinder exhaust port.
3. Remove spark arrester cover, exhaust diffuser, gasket
and screen from silencer. Replace screen if plugged with
carbon deposits.
4. Inspect gaskets, replace if damaged.
5. Install spark arrester screen, gasket, diffuser and cover.
6. Install silencer, gasket and engine cover.
13
REPLACING FUEL FILTER
NOTE
A clogged fuel filter will cause hard starting or poor engine
performance.
1. Pick up the fuel filter through fuel tank opening with a
piece of steel wire or the like.
2. Remove old filter from fuel line.
3. Install new fuel filter.
NOTE
Keep fuel tank clean - do not allow dirt or debris to enter
fuel tank.
PROCESSING DEVICE
WARNING DANGER
NEVER REMOVE VACUUM TUBE OR OPEN
FAN GUARD WHEN SHRED-N-VAC™ IS RUN-
NING.
1. With engine stopped, remove spark plug wire, loosen
clamp and pull vacuum tube from unit.
