OPERATING TIPS

S To reduce the risk of hearing loss

associated with sound level(s), hearing
protection is required.

S To reduce the risk of injury associated with

contacting rotating parts, stop the engine be­fore installing or rem oving attachments. Do
not operate without guard(s) in place.

S Operate power equipment only at reasonable

hours- -not early in the morning or late at night
when people m ight be disturbed. Comply with
times listed in local ordinances. Usual recom­mendations are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.,
Monday though Saturday.

S To reduce noise levels, limit the number of

pieces of equipment used at any one time.

S To reduce noise levels, operate power

blowers at the lowest possible throttle
speed to do the job.

S Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris be-

fore blowing.

S In dusty conditions, slightly dampen sur-

faces or use a mister attachment when wa­ter is available.

S Conserve water by using power blowers

instead of hoses for many lawn and garden
applications, including areas such as gutters,
screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens.

S Watch outfor children, pets, openwindows,

or freshly washed cars. Blow debris away
safely.

S Use the full blower nozzle extension so the

air stream can work close to the ground.

S After using blowers and other equipment,

CLEAN UP! Dispose of debris in trash re­ceptacles.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel

information in the safety rules before you
begin. If you do not understand the safety
rules, do not attempt to fuel your unit. Contact
an authorized service dealer.

FUELING ENGINE

WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly

when refueling.
This engine is certified to operate on
unleaded petrol. Before operation, petrol
must be mixed with a good quality 2-cycle
air-cooled engine oil. We recommend
Jonsered® brand oil mixed at a ratio of 40:1
(2.5%). A 40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 5
liters of unleaded petrol with 0,125 liter of oil.
When mixing fuel, follow the instructions
printed on the container. Always read and
follow thesafety rules before fueling your unit.

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 untilthe fuel lines
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next
season. Never use engine or carburetor
cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent
damage may occur.
