English
Make sure that the engine has stopped and is cool
before performing any service to the blower.
Contact with rotating blower fan or hot muffler may
result in a personal injury.
■
AIR CLEANER
• Never operate the blower without an air filter or with
a deformed or broken filter element because
unfiltered dusty air will quickly ruin the engine.
• Check the air cleaner before use.
A clogged air filter may increase fuel consumption
while cutting down the engine power.
• Never clean a paper filter by striking it with or
against another object. The filter may be damaged
and resultant dust contamination can diminish
engine performance.
