OPERATION
STORAGE
Never store engine indoors or in enclosed poorly ventilated areas with fuel in tank, where fuel fumes may reach
an open flame, spark or pilot light, as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or other gas appliance.
If engine is to be unused for 30 days or more, prepare as follows:
Remove all gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts and
causing possible malfunction of engine. Drain fuel outdoors, into an approved container, away from open flame. Be
sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and engine runs out of gasoline.
Like all mechanical tools, reasonable care must be used when operating machine.
Inspect machine work area and machine before operating. Make sure that all operators of this
equipment are trained in general machine use and safety.
PUT OIL IN ENGINE BEFORE STARTING
STARTING
ENGINE :See engine manufacturer’s instructions for type and amount of oil and gasoline used. Engine
must be level when checking and filling oil and gasoline.
ENGINE SPEED :Controlled by throttle lever on the engine. Under normal conditions, operate at minimum
throttle to accomplish your current cleaning task.
FUEL VALVE : Move fuel valve to "ON" position (when provided on engine).
CHOKE :Briggs-Located on engine and must be controlled manually.
Honda-Place remote throttle in choke position

OPERATION
VACUUMING OPERATION
VACUUM NOZZLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT :Nozzle height is raised and lowered by rotating the red knob
near the left rear wheel. Nozzle height should be adjusted based on the task being performed.
FOR MAXIMUM PICKUP : Adjust nozzle close to debris, but without blocking airflow into the nozzle. NOTE:
Never bury nozzle into debris.
CLEARING A CLOGGED NOZZLE & EXHAUST :Turn engine off and wait for impeller to stop completely
and disconnect spark plug wire. Wearing durable gloves, remove clog. Danger, the clog may contain sharp
materials. Reconnect spark plug wire.
DEBRIS BAG
Debris bags are normal replaceable wear items.
Note: Frequently empty debris to prevent bag overloading with more weight than you can lift.
An optional felt bag is available for use where debris will be vacuumed in dusty conditions (see Optional Accessories
shown on page 1).
DO NOT place bag on or near hot surface, such as engine. Be sure engine has come to a complete stop before removing or
emptying bag.
This vacuum is designed for picking up trash, organic material and other similar debris (see Safety Warnings
page 4-5).
However, many vacuums are used where dust is mixed with trash. Your unit can intermittently vacuum in dusty areas.
Dust is the greatest cause of lost vacuum performance. However, following these rules will help maintain your
machine's ability to vacuum in dusty conditions:
• Run machine at idle to quarter throttle.
• The debris bag must be cleaned more frequently. A vacuum with a clean, pillow soft bag will have good pickup
performance. One with a dirty, tight bag will have poor pickup performance. If dirty, empty debris and vigorously shake
bag free of dust.
• Pressure-wash debris bag if normal cleaning does not fully clean bag. Bag should be thoroughly dry before use.
NOTE: Having one or more spare debris bags is a good way to reduce down time while dirty bags are being cleaned.
DO NOT leave debris in bag while in storage.

KVSP/TKVSP Owner’s Manual
COMPOST
Vacuumed leaves, grass and other organic material from your own yard can be emptied into a pile or composter to
provide enriched soil for later use as fertilizer in gardens and flower beds
NOTE: Allow green chips to dry before spreading around living plants.
CHIPPER O
PERATION (TKV only)
Your TKV chipper is designed to process tree branches and limbs up to 2"
(50.8mm) diameter.
Several small branches can be grouped together and fed together into the
chipper (see figure right).
When feeding forked branches, squeeze forks together and feed into chipper
entrance (DO NOT overload). If forks are too large, use a pair of loppers to trim
forks down to size. A lopper storage bracket is provided on every unit (loppers
are not included)
Clearing a clogged chipper (TKV only)
Under normal circumstances, allow time for machine to clear all wood
from chipper hopper before stopping engine. Otherwise, remaining
pieces of wood will jam inside of chipper when engine stops. (See
Tamper below).
Disconnect spark plug wire.
Remove debris bag quick disconnect from debris outlet on machine.
Wearing durable gloves, access impeller through debris outlet on fan housing
and rotate impeller counter clock wise to dislodg
e and remove jam and remove
debris from hopper with tongs or equivalent. Reconnect debris bag quick
disconnect to machine.
Reconnect spark plug wire.
MULCH
Wood chips made from branches in your own yard make excellent mulch. A thick blanket of wood chips around
plants and flowers to keeps weeds out and moisture in.
TAMPER (TKV only)
Before turning machine off, use the Tamper to slowly push remaining pieces of
wood through the chipper. This can prevent any remaining wood from jamming
in the chipper when machine is turned off.
Do not leave tamper on the ground, store tamper in the chipper hopper.

CHI
PPER BLADE REMOVAL A
ND SHARPENING
(TKV ONLY)
Chipper blades are normal replaceable wear items.
DANGER Chipper blade is sharp. Replace any damaged blade.
Depending on the type and amount of wood being chipped, the chipper blade will eventually get dull, losing it’s
cutting ability. Evidence of a dull blade is a noticeably reduced chipping ability or a rough cut on end of branch.
Note: The chipper blade gap is factory set and should be checked each time impeller is removed from engine
crankshaft and reset if required. If reassembly requires a different quantity of shim washers, Billy Goat® shim
washer must be used.
1. Follow the steps 1-6 on the impeller removal instructions.
2. Using a 3/16" Allen wrench and 1/2" open end wrench, remove chipper blade from impeller.
3. Sharpen blade by lightly grinding the cutting edge of the blade at 40 degrees (see figure below). It is not
necessary to remove all nicks from the cutting edge. CAUTION: Be careful to avoid heat buildup in the blade
during sharpening. This will reduce it’s heat-
treated hardness properties and will reduce blade life. Evidence of
too much heat build-up is a change of color along sharpened edge.
4. The same chipper blade can be sharpened several times. However, blade replacement is required when
blade no longer overhangs the chip relief hole in impeller back plate or if increased vibration occurs (see fig
below).
5. Chipper blade installation is in reverse order of removal.
