5. USING THE BLOWER
In the hands of an experienced operator, the EB-260 can effeciently move a wide varity of debris
ranging from grass clippings to gravel.As a general rule,try to operate your EB-260 at the lowest
throttle settings necessary to get the job done:
THINK SAFETY!
- Use low throttle settings when clearing lightweight materials from around lawns or shrubbery.
- Use medium to higher throttle settings to move lightweight grass or leaves from parking lots or
walkways.
- Use full throttle when moving heavy loads such as dirt or snow.
IMPORTANT!
Blower noise increases at higher throttle settings! Always use the lowest throttle setting required to

then...
5. start the blower by pulling the starter cord upward rapidly.
If necessary,repeat Step 5 two or three times until the engine starts.
When the engine starts
IMPORTANT!
For maximum blower performance and operating life,allow the engine to warm before use.
1. Run the engine at idle speed until operating temperature is reached(2 to 3 minutes).
2. As the engine warms open the choke gradually by slowly pushing the choke control in to the fully
retracted position.
3. The blower should now be ready for use.
If the engine does not start
Repeat the appropriate starting procedures for “hot” or “cold” engine.If the engine still will not
start,follow the “Starting a Flooded Engine” procedure(below).
Starting a flooded engine
1. Disconnect the spark plug lead,and use the spark
plug wrench to remove the plug in a counterclock
-wise direction.
2. If the spark plug is fouled or is soaked with fuel,
clean or replace the plug as required.
3. Clear excess fuel from the combustion chamber by
cranking the engine several times while the spark plug is removed.
4. Install the spark plug and firmly tighten it with the
Spark plug wrench.If a torque wrench is available,
Torque the spark plug to 148-165 inch-pounds.Recon nect
the spark plug lead.
5. Repeat the starting procedures for “warm engine”.
6. If the engine still fails to fire or start,refer to the troubleshooting flowchart
at the end of this manual.
ADJUSTING ENGINE IDLE SPEED
1. Start the engine by following the procedures described on the preceding pages.
2. Run the engine at idle speed until operating temperature is reached(2-3 minutes).
3. Use a screwdirver to
adjust the engine idle speed to (2800- 3000)r/min.
- Turn the idle screw clockwise to increase engine idle speed.
- Turn the idle screw counterclockwise to decrease engine idle speed.
IMPORTANT!
Blower tubes and intake cover must be installed while adjusting engine idle! Engine idle speed will
also be affected if either the intake cover or blower tubes are blocked,
damaged or incorrectly installed!
STOPPING THE ENGINE
1. Cool the engine by allowing it to run at idle for 2 to 3 minutes.
2. Stop the engine by pulling the ignition switch.
IMPORTANT!
If the engine continues to run while pulling the ignition Switch,stop the engine by pulling the choke
control out to the fully closed position.
A clean and unrestricted airflow is essential to your blower’s engine performance and durability!
Before attempting any carburetor adjustments,inspect and clean the engine air cleaner as described
on page 9 of this manual.
5. USING THE BLOWER
In the hands of an experienced operator, the EB-260 can effeciently move a wide varity of debris
ranging from grass clippings to gravel.As a general rule,try to operate your EB-260 at the lowest
throttle settings necessary to get the job done:
