WARNING
Taking the following precautions will lessen the risk
of injury and property damage.
Use extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is
extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.
- Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other
sources of ignition.
- Use only approved gasoline container.
- Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine
running. Allow engine to cool a minimum of 3
minutes before refueling.
- Never fuel the machine indoors.
- Never store the machine or fuel container where
there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light such as
on a water heater or other appliances.
- Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck
or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place con-
tainers on the ground away from your vehicle when
filling.
- Remove the blower from the truck or trailer and
refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then
refuel the equipment with a portable container, rather
than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
- Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until fueling is
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
- If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing
immediately.
- Never overfill fuel tank. Always wipe off any spilled
fuel or oil. Replace fuel cap and tighten.

NOTE!
In hot conditions the fuel can
evaporate out of the carburetor
after shuting off the machine.
This results in hard starting even
if the engine is warm. By using
the priming pump the carburetor
is refilled with fuel. The engine
will not get flooded by using the
priming pump.
NOTE!
Always let the engine return to an idle speed for 10 seconds
before stopping. This allows the engine to cool down gradually.
This prolongs the life of some engine components.
