OPERATING TIPS
S While vacuuming or blowing debris, hold
the unit with the muffler side facing away
from your body and clothes (see OPERATING POSITION).
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 removing 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 andbrooms 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 Watchout forchildren, pets, open windows,
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, donot attemptto 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 Partner 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 thecontainer. Always read and follow
the safety rules before fueling your unit.
IMPORTANT
Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanol) canattract moisture which leads to
separation andformation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system
of anengine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, empty the fuel system before storage for 30days or longer. Drain the gas tank,
start the engine andlet it run untilthe fuellines

with EC directive 2000/14/EC. Reported sound power level for the machine has been measured with the original cutting attachment that gives the highest level. The difference between
guaranteed and measured sound power is that the guaranteed sound power also includes
dispersion in the measurement result and the variations between different machines of the
same model according to Directive 2000/14/EC.
Note 2: Reported data for equivalent sound pressure level for the machine has a typical
statistical dispersion (standard deviation) of 1 dB(A).
