Physical Condition
Your judgment and physical dexterity may not be good:
• if you are tired or sick,
• if you are taking medication,
• if you have taken alcohol or drugs.
Operate unit only if you are physically and mentally well.
Eye Protection
Wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 or CE requirements whenever you operate the unit.
Hand Protection
Wear no-slip, heavy-duty work gloves to improve your grip on the blower handle. Gloves also reduce the transmission
of machine vibration to your hands.
Breathing Protection
Wear a facemask to protect against dust.
Hearing Protection
ECHO recommends wearing hearing protection whenever unit is used.
Proper Clothing
Wear snug fitting, durable clothing;
• Pants should have long legs, shirts with long sleeves.
• DO NOT WEAR SHORTS,
• DO NOT WEAR TIES, SCARVES, and JEWELRY.
Wear sturdy work shoes with nonskid soles:
• DO NOT WEAR OPEN TOED SHOES,
• DO NOT OPERATE UNIT BAREFOOTED.
Keep long hair away from engine and blower intake. Retain hair with cap or net.
Hot Humid Weather
Heavy protective clothing can increase operator fatigue, which may lead to heat stroke. Schedule heavy work for early
morning or late afternoon hours when temperatures are cooler.
Vibration 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
sensations, 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 the head, neck, feet, ankles,
hands, and wrists.
• Maintain good blood circulation by performing vigorous arm
exercises during frequent work breaks, and also by not smoking.
• Limit the hours of 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.
POWER BLOWER
OPERATOR'S MANUAL
Repetitive Stress Injuries
It is believed that overusing the muscles and tendons of the fingers, hands, arms, and shoulders may cause soreness,
swelling, numbness, weakness, and extreme pain in those areas. Certain repetitive hand activities may put you at a high
risk for developing a Repetitive Stress Injury (RSI). An extreme RSI condition is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), which
could occur when your wrist swells and squeezes a vital nerve that runs through the area.
Some believe that prolonged exposure to vibration may contribute to CTS. CTS can cause severe pain for months or
even years.
To reduce the risk of RSI/CTS, do the following:
• Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended, or twisted position.
Instead try to maintain a straight wrist position. Also, when
grasping, use your whole hand, not just the thumb and index
finger.
• Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest your hands.
• Reduce the speed and force with which you do the repetitive
movement.
• Do exercises to strengthen the hand and arm muscles.
• Immediately stop using all power equipment and consult a
doctor if you feel tingling, numbness, or pain in the fingers,
hands, wrists, or arms. The sooner RSI/CTS is diagnosed, the
more likely permanent nerve and muscle damage can be prevented.

Clear the Work Area
• Spectators and fellow workers must be warned, and children and
animals prevented from coming nearer than 15 m (50 ft.) while the
unit is in use.
• Take wind conditions into account: avoid open doors and
windows.
• Do not point blower at people or animals.
Keep a Firm Grip
• Hold the front and rear handles with both hands, with thumbs

OPERATION
FUEL
Fuel Requirements
Gasoline - Use 89 Octane [R+M/2] (mid grade or higher) gasoline
known to be good quality. Gasoline may contain up to 15% MTBE
(methyl tertiary-butyl ether). Gasohol containing methyl (wood) alcohol
is NOT approved.
Two Stroke Oil - A two-stroke engine oil meeting ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD
13738) and J.A.S.O. FC Standards must be used. Echo brand premium
Power Blend TM Universal 2-Stroke Oil meets these standards. Engine
problems due to inadequate lubrication caused by failure to use an
ISO-L-EGD and J.A.S.O. FC certified oil, such as Echo premium Power
Blend TM, will void the two-stroke engine warranty. (Emission related
parts only are covered for two years, regardless of two-stroke oil used,
per the statement listed in the Emission Defect Warranty Explanation.)
IMPORTANT
Echo premium Power Blend TM Universal 2-Stroke Oil may be mixed
at 50:1 ratio for application in all Echo engines sold in the past
regardless of ratio specified in those manuals.

IMPORTANT
Spilled fuel is a leading cause of
hydrocarbon emissions. Some states
may require the use of automatic fuel
shut-off containers to reduce fuel
spillage.
After use
• DO NOT store a unit with fuel in its tank.
Leaks can occur. Return unused fuel to an
approved fuel storage container.
Storage - Fuel storage laws vary by locality.
Contact your local government for the laws
affecting your area. As a precaution, store
fuel in an approved, airtight container. Store
in a well-ventilated, unoccupied building,
away from sparks and flames.
IMPORTANT
Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel

MAINTENANCE
Your ECHO blower is designed to provide many hours of trouble free service. Regular scheduled maintenance will help
your blower achieve that goal. If you are unsure or are not equipped with the necessary tools, you may want to take your
unit to an ECHO Service Dealer for maintenance. To help you decide whether you want to DO-IT-YOURSELF or have the
ECHO Dealer do it, each maintenance task has been graded. If task is not listed, see your ECHO Dealer for repairs.
SKILLLEVELS
Level 1 =Easy to do. Most required tools come with unit.
Level 2 =Moderate difficulty. Some specialized tools may be required.
Level 3 =Experience required. Specialized tools are required. Echo recommends
the unit be returned to your Echo Dealer for servicing.
ECHO offers REPOWERTM Maintenance Kits and Parts to make your maintenance job easier. Just below each task
heading are listed the various part numbers required for that task. See your ECHO dealer for these parts.
To maintain proper engine operating temperatures, cooling air must
pass freely through the cylinder fin area. 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.
• 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 cooling fins is
considered “Normal Maintenance.” Any failure attributed to lack of
maintenance is not warranted.
Cleaning Grill
1 . Remove accumulated debris from intake grill between backpack
screen (C) from muffler. Replace screen if plugged with carbon
deposits.
NOTE
When cleaning carbon deposit, be careful not to damage the
catalytic element inside muffler.
3. Install spark arrestor screen and cover.
4. Install spark plug and engine cover.
Cylinder Exhaust Port
Level 3.
IMPORTANT
The cylinder exhaust port must be inspected and cleaned of excess
carbon every 3 months or 90 hours of operation in order to maintain
this engine within the emissions durability period. ECHO strongly
recommends that you return your unit to your ECHO dealer for this
important maintenance service.

CARBURETORADJUSTMENT
Engine Break-In
New engines must be operated a minimum duration of two tanks of fuel
break-in before carburetor adjustments can be made. During the break-in
period your engine performance will increase and exhaust emissions will
stabilize. Idle speed can be adjusted as required.
High Altitude Adjustment
High altitude adjustment is not required for proper operation of this
engine.
Do not adjust carburetor unless necessary. If you have difficulty,
see your ECHO dealer.
Before Adjustment
Check that:
• Air filter is clean and properly installed.
• Spark arrestor screen is free of carbon.
• Blower pipes are installed.
1 . Start engine, run at idle for one minute.
2 . Complete warm up by running at full throttle for 5 minutes,
operating choke twice to clear air from carburetor chambers.
3 . Check idle speed and reset if necessary. If a tachometer is
available, idle speed screw (A) should be set to the specifications
found on Page 10 "Specifications" of this manual. Turn idle screw
(A) clockwise to increase idle speed; counter clockwise to
decrease idle speed.
A
4. Use a tachometer to adjust idle speed to specifications found on
page 25.
Fuel vapors are extremely flammable and may cause fire and/or explosion. Never test for ignition spark by grounding
spark plug near cylinder plug hole, otherwise serious personal injury may result.
24
STORAGE
WARNING DANGER
During operation the muffler or catalytic muffler and surrounding cover become hot. Always keep exhaust area clear
of flammable debris during transportation or when storing, otherwise serious property damage or personal injury
may result.
Long Term Storage (Over 30 Days)
Do not store your unit for a prolonged period of time (30 days or longer) without performing protective storage maintenance, which includes the following:
1 . Store unit in a dry, dust free place, out of the reach of children.
WARNING DANGER
Do not store where fuel fumes may accumulate or reach an open flame or sparks.
2. Place the stop switch in the “STOP” position.
3 . Remove accumulation of grease, oil, dirt and debris
from exterior of unit.
4 . Perform all periodic lubrication and services that are
required.
5. Tighten all screws and nuts.
6.Drain the fuel tank completely and pull the recoil
starter handle several times to remove fuel from the
carburetor.
7 . Remove the spark plug and pour 7cc (1/4 oz.) of
fresh, clean ECHO 2-stroke engine oil into the
cylinder through the spark plug hole.
A. Place a clean cloth over the spark plug hole.
B . Pull the recoil starter handle 2-3 times to
distribute the oil inside the engine.
