whilst the engine is operating at a low speed, it can be increased.
• Grip the blower by both handles (2&3) and point directly at the debris
being cleared.
• Sweep the unit gently from side to side to try and gather the debris into
one location.

NOTE: If performance seems to be restricted, you may need to remove the
vacuum bag.

cleaning / maintenance.
Spark plug
• The spark plug should be checked regularly.
• Remove the spark plug using the spanner supplied.
• The electrode gap should be set to 0.5mm.
• If the plug appears to be fouled, or burnt, the engine is not running
properly. Check for correct fuel mixture, and proper engine adjustment.
• If the electrode is heavily pitted, or eroded, replace the spark plug with a
new one of the same type.
• Always tighten spark plug properly before use.
Cleaning
• Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal
parts to wear quickly, and shorten the machine's service life.
• Clean the body of your machine with a cloth and detergent.
• The fuel tank contains a filter that should be regularly cleaned with fresh
petrol.
• The air filter should be removed and cleaned regularly. The air filter
element should be cleaned using household detergent, dried, and re-oiled
with regular machine oil. Reassemble before using the brush cutter.
Storage
• Allow the vacuum blower to cool fully before preparing for storage.
• Drain out all fuel and oil.
• If the vacuum blower is to be stored for an extended period, wipe over
all metal surfaces with an oiled cloth. Remove the spark plug, and pour
a small amount of oil into the cylinder. Replace spark plug, and pull the
starting handle to distribute oil.
• Store the vacuum blower in a clean, dry, place away from heat and direct
sunlight. Ensure that the vacuum blower is stored where children cannot
get access to it.
