Operation Product Overview Before Operation Before Operation Safety General Safety • For electric-start models only: Use extension cords and receptacles as specified in the manual. Inspect the electrical cord before plugging it into a power source. If the cord is damaged, replace it. Unplug the power cord whenever you are not starting the machine. • Wear appropriate clothing, including eye protection; long pants; substantial, slip-resistant footwear; and hearing protection.
PAGE 7
Filling the Fuel Tank Do not fill above the bottom of the fuel tank neck (Figure 9). • For best results, use only clean, fresh (less than 30 days old), unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher ((R+M)/2 rating method). • Oxygenated fuel with up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE by volume is acceptable. • Do not use ethanol blends of gasoline (such as E15 or E85) with more than 10% ethanol by volume. Performance problems and/or engine damage may result which may not be covered under warranty.
PAGE 8
• After striking a foreign object, shut off the engine, causes distractions; otherwise, injury or property damage may occur. remove the ignition key (electric-start models only), inspect the machine for damage. Repair any damage before starting the machine. • Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling, especially when operating the machine in reverse.
PAGE 9
Electric-Start Models g257387 Figure 11 Note: Use only a UL-listed, 16-gauge extension cord that is recommended for outdoor use and is not longer than 15 m (50 ft). WARNING The electrical cord can become damaged, causing a shock or fire. Thoroughly inspect the electrical cord before plugging it into a power source. If the cord is damaged, do not use it to start the machine. Replace or repair the damaged cord immediately. Contact an Authorized Service Dealer for assistance.
PAGE 10
Shutting Off the Engine To shut off the engine, turn the ignition key counterclockwise to the OFF position (Figure 14). g011433 Figure 14 Adjusting the Discharge Chute and Chute Deflector To adjust the discharge chute, press the trigger of the Quick Shoot™ control on the right side of the handle and move it up or down along the handle. Moving the control down the handle rotates the discharge chute to the left; moving the control up the handle rotates the discharge chute to the right (Figure 15).
PAGE 11
Operating Tips • Clean off any snow and ice from the base of the chute. • Rotate the discharge chute left and right to free WARNING it from any ice buildup. The rotor blades can throw stones, toys, and other foreign objects and cause serious personal injury to you or bystanders.
PAGE 12
Maintenance Recommended Maintenance Schedule(s) Maintenance Service Interval After the first hour After the first 2 hours Before each use or daily Yearly Yearly or before storage Maintenance Procedure • Check the control cable and adjust it if necessary. • Check for loose fasteners and tighten them if necessary. • Change the engine oil. • Check the engine-oil level and add oil if necessary. • Check the control cable and adjust it if necessary.
PAGE 13
Adjusting the Control Cable 1. Slide up the spring cover and unhook the spring from the adjuster link (Figure 18). g011232 Figure 19 g006402 Figure 18 1. Adjuster link 3. Spring cover 2. Z-fitting 4. Unhook the spring here. 1. Upper end of spring 3. Pivot point 2. Insert the upper end of spring into this hole 4. Remove the upper end of spring from this hole Note: The belt may slip (squeal) in wet conditions; to dry out the drive system, start the rotor and run it without a load for 30 seconds.
PAGE 14
Changing the Engine Oil 8. Service Interval: After the first 2 hours Yearly With the machine in the operating position, carefully pour oil into the oil-fill hole to the point of overflow (Figure 24). Note: You may tip the machine forward (handle up) to make adding oil easier. Remember to return the machine to the operating position before checking the oil level. If possible, run the engine for a few minutes before changing the oil to warm it. Warm oil flows better and carries more contaminants.
PAGE 15
Servicing the Spark Plug Service Interval: Yearly—Service the spark plug and replace it if necessary. Use a NGK BPR6ES or Champion RN9YC spark plug or equivalent. 1. Shut off the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop. 2. Rotate the discharge chute so that it faces forward. 3. Remove the discharge chute, the discharge-chute handle, and the chute seal by removing the 3 large screws and 1 small screw (Figure 25). g011435 Figure 26 g006489 Figure 25 1. Fuel-tank cap 4. Small screw 2.
PAGE 16
12. Install the spark plug and torque it to 27 to 30 N∙m (20 to 22 ft-lb). 13. Connect the wire to the spark plug. Replacing the Drive Belt If the drive belt becomes worn, oil-soaked, excessively cracked, frayed, or otherwise damaged, replace the belt. Note: Ensure that the breather tube is routed above the spark-plug wire as shown in Figure 28. 1. Remove the drive-belt cover by removing the 3 bolts as shown in Figure 29. g011440 Figure 28 1. Breather tube g008238 2.
PAGE 17
Note: Route the new drive belt first around the engine pulley, then the idler pulley, and finally around the loose rotor pulley positioned just above the rotor shaft (Figure 29). 6. Install the rotor pulley onto the rotor shaft (Figure 29). 7. Install the curved washer and the rotor-pulley bolt and tighten them securely (Figure 29). Note: The concave side of the curved washer goes against the outside of the pulley. 8. 9. Install the brake spring onto the idler arm (Figure 30).
PAGE 18
4. Hold the discharge chute in the straight-ahead position, pull the lower cable casing downward until you remove the slack in the cable, and tighten the screw on the lower cable clamp securely (Figure 35). g006512 Figure 35 1. Lower cable casing g006521 5. Figure 34 Pull the upper cable casing forward until you remove the slack in the cable, and tighten the screw on the upper cable clamp securely (Figure 36). g006513 Figure 36 1.
