Using The Blower

Operating Tips

In the hands of an experienced opera- tor, the blower can efficiently move

a wide variety of debris ranging from grass clippings to gravel. As a general rule, operate your blower at the lowest throttle setting required to get the job done:

Heat sensor

This engine is equipped with a heat sensor in order to prevent overheat- ing. If engine overheating occurs, the engine speed will be reduced to 5,000 RPM, and engine stops after 10 seconds.

■■Use low throttle settings when clearing lightweight materials from around lawns or shrubbery.

■■Use medium to higher throttle set- tings to move grass or leaves from parking lots or walkways.

■■Use full throttle when moving heavy loads such as dirt or snow.

If engine stops:

■■Remove any leaves and debris blocking intake cover.

■■Restart engine.

■■Keep the engine speed at idle for 1 minute.

IMPORTANT!

Blower noise increases at higher throttle settings! Always use the lowest throttle setting required to get the job done!

CAUTION!

If the engine speed is automati- cally reduced again after cooling the engine, please consult with an authorized servicing dealer.

Maintenance

IMPORTANT!

MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES AND SYSTEMS MAY BE PERFORMED BY ANY REPAIR ESTAB- LISHMENT OR INDIVIDUAL, HOW- EVER, WARRANTY REPAIRS MUST BE PERFORMED BY A DEALER OR SERVICE CENTER AUTHORIZED BY ECHO, INC. THE USE OF PARTS THAT ARE NOT EQUIVALENT IN PERFOR- MANCE AND DURABILITY TO AUTHO- RIZED PARTS MAY IMPAIR THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM AND MAY HAVE A BEARING ON THE OUTCOME OF A WARRANTY CLAIM.

WARNING!

Non-standard parts may not operate properly with your unit and may cause damage and lead to personal injury.

WARNING!

Before performing any maintenance, repair or cleaning work on the unit, make sure the engine is completely stopped. Dis- connect the spark plug wire before performing service or maintenance work.

NOTE:

Using non-standard replacement parts could invalidate your Shindaiwa warranty.

Muffler

This unit must never be operated with a faulty or missing spark arrester or muffler. Make sure the muffler is well secured and in good condition. A worn or damaged muffler is a fire hazard and may also cause hearing loss.

Spark Plug

Keep the spark plug and wire connec- tions tight and clean.

Fasteners

Make sure nuts, bolts, and screws (except carburetor adjusting screws) are tight.

Air Filter

The H4 engine that powers your Shindaiwa model is a hybrid 4-stroke engine. As a hybrid, the engine is lubricated by oil mixed with the gaso- line and air from the carburetor that moves through and around the inter- nal parts of the engine in a similar way that a 2-stroke engine is lubricated. Without the heavy duty 2-stage air fil- ter equipped on all H4 engines, dust and dirt could also move through the engine, decreasing engine life, increas- ing valve wear and the need for more frequent valve adjustments. To keep your H4 engine strong and reliable, Shindaiwa recommends that you check and service the air filter as instructed in the 10-Hour Maintenance section that follows.
