FUEL MIXTURE (See Fig. 11)

• This blower is powered by a 2-cycle engine; the operator is required to use premixed gasoline and 2-cycle lubricant. Prepare a mixture of unleaded gasoline and 2-cycle engine lubricant in a clean container approved for storing gasoline. Only prepare quantities that can be used up within a few days.
• DO NOT prepare quantities that will need to be stored for more than 30 days.

Recommended Fuel

• This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline intended for automotive use. U.S. EPA regulations make it illegal to use gasoline containing higher than 10% ethanol content in outdoor power equipment like your LawnMaster® power equipment and doing so can void your LawnMaster® Limited Warranty.
• If the proper precautions are taken, however, gasoline containing a 10% quantity of ethanol can safely be used in your LawnMaster® products.
• Much of the gasoline sold throughout the United States contains ethanol. The maximum ethanol content allowed by law for use in outdoor power equipment is limited to 10% (E10). Most small power equipment engines are designed to use no more than a 10% ethanol-gasoline blend.
• If you are not sure of the ethanol content in the gasoline you are purchasing, ask the retailer. If they are unsure, purchase your fuel from another retailer that offers gasoline with no more than 10% ethanol.
• NOTE: We recommend you use a high-quality synthetic 2-cycle lubricant in this product.
• Recommended specification: JASO-FC or above. Mix at 3.2 oz. per gallon (US).
• Do not use automotive lubricant or 2-cycle outboard lubricant.

Mixing Tips

• Always start by filling an approved fuel container with half of the required amount of gasoline.
• Then add the entire amount of 2-cycle lubricant. Close the container and shake to mix the lubricant with the gasoline.
• Add the remaining amount of gasoline, close the fuel container, and shake again.
• Ensure that the fuel is well-mixed by shaking the container before filling the fuel tank (Fig. 11).

FILLING THE FUEL TANK (See Fig. 12)

NOTICE: Before each use, ALWAYS shake the fuel container thoroughly to ensure that the fuel is mixed completely.

• Place the tool on a flat, level surface, outdoors.

FUEL TANK CAP, TANK AND LINES

• DANGER
  • Fuel is EXTREMELY flammable. Be very cautious and use care when mixing storing or handling.
  • Failure to follow this instruction may lead to serious personal injury.
• WARNING
  • Check for fuel leaks.
  • Do not use the blower in the presence of a leak as it is a fire hazard.
  • Loose or damaged tank caps or leaking tanks must be replaced immediately.
  • Failure to follow this instruction may lead to serious personal injury.

Use a clean cloth to remove loose dirt from around the fuel tank cap and empty the fuel tank. The fuel tank cap contains a check valve. If the performance improves when the fuel tank cap is loosened, the check valve may be faulty. Replace the fuel tank cap if required. A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine performance. Replace the fuel filter if required as it is a non- serviceable part. Please contact your nearest service centre to replace this fuel filter.

SPARK PLUG REPLACEMENT (See Figs. 26-29)

• The spark plug for this engine may be replaced using an identical or equivalent spark plug as provided with the tool.
• The spark plug gap should be set at 0.026 in. (0.65 mm). Replace annually with a recommended or equivalent replacement part.
• Remove the spark plug cap. Fully cover the spark plug using the provided socket wrench. Rotate the wrench counterclockwise to remove the spark plug (Fig. 26 & 27).
• Check the spark plug for fouling, and worn and rounded centre electrode. Clean the plug or replace it with a new one. DO NOT use a blowing tool to clean as the movement of dirt may damage the engine.
• Adjust the spark plug gap by bending the outer electrode (Fig. 28).
• Reinstall the cleaned or new spark plug by turning it clockwise into place (Fig. 29).
• Reinstall the spark plug cap into place.

NOTICE:

• Be careful not to cross-thread the spark plug. Cross-threading will seriously damage the product.

STORAGE

• Clean the blower of any debris and store it indoors in a dry, well-ventilated area that is inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.

• Press the primer bulb 3 – 4 times to remove the remaining fuel from the carburettor. Run the engine until it stops.

HIGH-ALTITUDE ENGINE OPERATION

• Initially, your engine is configured for operation below 2000 ft. altitude.
• If the blower is being used above 2000 ft. altitude, the engine must be re-configured accordingly.
• Operating the engine with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude may increase its emissions, drop fuel efficiency, reduce performance and cause irreparable damage.
• Engines configured for high-altitude operation will need to be reconfigured for use in standard altitude conditions.
• Your authorized service centre should ensure that your engine is properly configured for your location.
