OPERATING TIPS
Whi_e vacuuming or blowing debris, hold
the unit with the muffler side facing away
from your body and clothes (see OPERAT-
ING POSITION illustration above).
To reduce the risk of hearing loss
associated with sound level(s), hearing
protection is required.
To reduce the risk of injury associated with
contacting rotating parts, stop the engine be-
fore installing or removing attachments Do
not operate without guard(s) in place.
Operate power equipment only at reasonable
beurs-not early in the morning or late at night
when people might be disturbed. Comply with
times listed in local ordinances Usual recom-
mendations are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.,
Monday though Saturday.
To reduce noise levels, limit the number of
pieces of equipment used at any one time.
-7-
To reduce noise _eveis, operate power
blowers at the lowest possible throttle
speed to do the job
Use rakes and brooms to loosen debds be-
fore blowing.
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen sur-
faces or use a mister attachment when wa-
ter is available.
Conserve water by using power blowers
instead of hoses for many lawn and garden
applications, including areas such as gutters,
screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens.
Watch out for children, pets, open windows,
or freshly washed cars. Blow debris away
safely.
Use the full blower nozzle extension so the
air stream can work close to the ground.
After using blowers and other equipment,
CLEAN UP! Dispose of debris in trash re-
ceptacles.
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE
_WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel
information in the safety rules before you be-
gin. If you do not understand the safety rules,
do not attempt to fuel your unit. Call
1-800-554-6723.
FUELING ENGINE
Ai_WARNING: Remove fuet cap s_owly
when refueling.
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded
gasoline. Before operation, gasoline must be
mixed with a good quality synthetic 2-cycle
air-cooled engine oil designed to be mixed at a
ratio of 40:1. Poulan PRO brand synthetic oil is
recommended. Mix gasefine and oil at a refJo of
40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 32
ounces (95 ml) of oil with 1 gallon (4 liters) of
unleaded gasoline. DO NOT USE automotive
oil or marine oil These oils will cause engine
damage. When mixing fuel, follow instructions
printed on container Once oil is added to
gasoline, shake container momentarily to
assure that the fuel is thoroughly mixed. Always
read and feflow the safety rules relating to fuel
before fueling your unit.
IMPORTANT
Experience indicates that a_cohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanef) can attract moisture which leads to
separation and formation of acids during
storage. Acidic gas can damage the fue{
system of an engine while in storage. To avoid
engine problems, empty the fuel system
before storage for 30 days or longer. Drain the
gas tank, startthe engine and let it run until the
fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh
fuel next season. Never use engine or
carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or
permanent damage may occur.
