OPERATING PROCEDURES

Fuel (Fig. 6)
WARNING
○ The unit/machine is equipped with a two-stroke engine.
Always run the engine on fuel, which is mixed with oil.
Provide good ventilation, when fueling or handling fuel.
○ Fuel is highly fl ammable and it is possible to get seriously
injured when inhaling or spilling on your body.
Always pay attention when handling fuel. Always have
good ventilation when handling fuel inside building.
Fuel
○ Always use branded 89 octane unleaded gasoline.
○ Use genuine two-cycle oil or use a mix between 25:1 to
50:1, please consult about the mixture ratio to HiKOKI
Authorized Service Centers.
○ If genuine oil is not available, use an anti-oxidant added
quality oil expressly labeled for air-cooled 2-cycle engine
use (JASO FC GRADE OIL or ISO EGC GRADE). Do not
use BIA or TCW (2-stroke water-cooling type) mixed oil.
○ Never use multi-grade oil (10 W/30) or waste oil.
○ Never mix fuel and oil in machine's fuel tank. Always mix
fuel and oil in a separate clean container.
Always start by fi lling half the amount of gasoline, which is
to be used.
Then add the whole amount of oil. Mix (shake) the fuel
mixture. Add the remaining amount of gasoline.
Mix (shake) the fuel-mix thoroughly before fi lling the fuel
tank.

Fueling
WARNING
○ Always shut off the engine and let it cool for a few
minutes before refueling.
Do not smoke or bring fl ames or sparks near the fueling
site.
○ Slowly open the fuel tank, when fi lling up with fuel, so
that possible over-pressure disappears.
○ Tighten the fuel tank cap carefully, after fueling.
○ Always move the unit at least 3 m from the fueling area
before starting.
○ Always wash any spilled fuel from clothing immediately
with soap.
○ Be sure to check any fuel leakage after refueling.
○ Before fueling, in order to remove static electricity from
the main body, the fuel container and the operator,
please touch the ground that is slightly damp.
Before fueling, clean the tank cap area carefully, to ensure
that no dirt falls into the tank. Make sure that the fuel is well
mixed by shaking the container, before fueling.
Starting
CAUTION
Do not start if the pipe and guard net is obstructed.
(1) Starting the cold engine
1. Set ignition switch (H) to ON position. (Fig. 7)
2. Push priming pump (N) several times so that fuel fl ows
through return pipe (10). (Fig. 8)

3. Set choke lever (M) to START position (closed) (A).
(Fig. 9)
4. Pull starter handle briskly, taking care to keep the handle
in your grasp and not allowing it to snap back. (Fig. 10)
5. When you hear the engine want to start, return choke
lever to RUN position (open) (B). (Fig. 9)
6. Pull starter handle briskly again. (Fig. 10)
NOTE
If engine does not start, repeat procedures from 2 to 6.
7. Then allow the engine about 2–3 minutes to warm up
before subjecting it to any load.
(2) Starting the warm engine
Use only 1, 2 and 6 of the starting procedure for a cold
engine.
If the engine does not start, use the same starting
procedure as for a cold engine.
Operating blower (Fig. 11)
○ A low speed should be used to blow leaves and dry
grass.
○ A medium speed should be used to clean wet leaves and
grass.
○ A high speed should be used when moving gravel, dirt or
other heavy materials.
○ When working in a dusty area, hose down the area with
water.
WARNING
○ Do not direct discharge of air toward people or pet.
○ The unit should be operated in a well ventilated area.
○ Never perform assembly or disassembly procedures
with engine running or serious personal injury may result.
○ Never touch muffl er, spark plug, or other metallic parts
while engine is in running or immediately after shutting
off engine.
○ Do not use this blower indoors.
○ Do not operate if there is an open window near the work
area and its surroundings.
CAUTION
This blower has been designed and adjusted to be used
with blowing pipes attached. It must never be operated
without the straight pipe.
NOTE
○ When you hear or feel strange sound or vibration, stop
engine immediately and check if anything blocks fans or
pipes, If so, remove it and check for damage.
○ Blowing Pipe Selection
• Straight Blowing Pipe
Allows operation at maximum blow capacity.
Suitable for operation in widespread areas, engine
revolution is kept at a minimum, resulting in improved
fuel consumption when compared with the conic/fan-
shaped blowing pipe.
The straight blowing pipe is recommended for normal
use.
• Conic/Fan-Shaped Blowing Pipe
Allows operation at maximum blow speed.
Ideal for blowing wet leaves stuck to the ground or
releasing a powerful air discharge in limited spaces.
Stopping (Fig. 12)
Decrease engine speed and run at an idle for a few minutes,
then turn off ignition switch (H) and keep the pressed until
the engine comes to a complete stop.
