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 toot. SPECIAL NOTICE: For users on U.S. For-
est Land and in some states, including Cali- fornia (Public Resources Codes 4442 and
4443), Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, Oregon, and Washington: Certain internal
combustion engines operated on forest,
brush, and/or grass covered land in the above
areas are required to be equipped with a spark arresting screen, maintained in effec- tive working order, orthe engine must be con-
structed, equipped, and maintained for the
prevention of fire. Check with your state or lo-
cal authorities for regulations pertaining to these requirements. Failure to follow these
requirements is a violation of the law. This unit is not factory equipped with a spark arresting
screen; however, a spark arresting screen is available as an optional part. If a spark arrest-
ing screen is required in your area, contact
your authorized service dealer for the correct
kit. The spark arresting screen, blower tubes,
and nozzles must be assembled to unit to be
in full compliance with regulations.

2-cycle synthetic off into
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:t. 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 (95 ml) of oil with 1 gallon (4 liters) 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.
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 fuel next season. Never use engine or
carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
