  • Examine the product for missing, damaged, loose or worn parts.
  • Examine the collection bag. Make sure that the collection bag is not damaged and that the zipper is closed.
  • Examine the nuts, screws and bolts.
  • Examine the air filter.
  • Examine the throttle trigger for correct operation.
  • Examine the stop switch for correct operation.
  • Examine the product for fuel leaks.

To start a cold engine
WARNING: Do not wind the starter rope around your arm.
CAUTION: Do not hold the product with your foot.
CAUTION: Do not pull the starter rope to the end position. Do not let go of the starter rope handle when the starter rope is extended. This can cause damage to the product.

Note: If the engine stops, move the choke control to the closed position and do the starting steps again.

  1. Fill the fuel tank with a clean fuel mixture.

  2. Use your left hand to hold the body of the machine on the ground. Make sure the blower end is pointed away from persons, animals, glass and solid objects.

  3. Slowly push the air purge bulb 10 times.

  4. Move the choke lever to the FULL CHOKE position.

  5. Squeeze and hold the throttle trigger.

  6. Sull the starter rope handle quickly until the engine tries to run, but no more than 3 pulls.
    Note: If the temperature is less than 4°C (40°F), continue to pull the starter rope handle until the engine tries to start.

  7. Move the choke lever to the HALF CHOKE position.

  8.  Pull the starter rope handle quickly until the engine runs.

  9. Let the engine run for 10 seconds.

  10. Move the choke lever to the NO CHOKE position.

To start a warm engine

  1. Slowly push the air purge bulb 10 times.
  2. Move the choke lever to the HALF CHOKE position.
  3. Pull the starter rope handle quickly until the engine runs.
  4. Move the choke lever to the NO CHOKE position.

To start an engine with vapor lock
Vapor lock occurs when the fuel in the fuel line or carburetor vaporizes because of increased heat.
The product may have vapor lock if it does not restart in an ambient temperature of more than 35°C (95°F) and it has been shut off for 15-45 minutes.

  1. Push the air purge bulb again and again for 10-15 seconds.
  2. Move the choke lever to the HALF CHOKE position.

To stop the engine

  • Push and release the engine STOP switch. The switch automatically returns to the ON position. Wait 7 seconds before you try to restart the product to make sure that the switch resets.

To adjust the VX™ blower tube

  1. Align the correct slot (A or B) on the outer VX™ blower tube with the tab (C) on the inner tube. (Fig. 34)
    Note: You cannot see the tab when the tubes are assembled. You must feel the position of the tab as you move the outer tube.
    Note: Engage the tab in position “A” for a large blower opening. A large blower opening moves wide areas of dry leaves and other unwanted material. Engage the tab in position “B” for a small blower opening. A small blower opening makes air flow faster to clean cracks and edging and to move heavy material such as wet leaves.

  2. Turn the outer tube as shown to disengage the tab from the slot. (Fig. 35)

  3. Move the outer tube along the inner tube to change the position. (Fig. 36)

  4. Turn the outer tube as shown until the tab is fully engaged at the end of the correct slot location. (Fig. 37)
