MAINTENANCE
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries.
Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all openings.
Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all
moving parts have come to a complete stop before removing
obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit. Allow unit to
cool before performing service. Wear gloves to protect hands
from sharp edges and hot surfaces.
Your ECHO unit is designed to provide many hours of trouble free service.
Regular scheduled maintenance will help your unit achieve that goal. If you
are unsure or are not equipped with the necessary tools, we recommend
that you take your unit to an ECHO Servicing Dealer for maintenance. To
help you decide whether you want to DO-IT-YOURSELF or have the ECHO
Dealer do it, each maintenance task has been graded. If the task is not
listed, see your ECHO Dealer for repairs.
