6 1.3. General fuel safety. ALL FUELS ARE FLAMMABLE Fire hazard - keep fuel away from all sources of ignition for example heaters, lamps, sparks from grinding or welding DO NOT carry out hot work on tanks that have contained fuel it is extremely dangerous ALWAYS keep work area clean and tidy ALWAYS clean up all spills promptly using correct methods i.e. absorbent granules and a lidded bin ALWAYS dispose of waste fuels correctly Fueling/De-fueling. ALL FUELS ARE FLAMMABLE ALWAYS fuel and defuel in a well-ventilated area outside of buildings ALWAYS wear correct, suitable and fit for purpose Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), suggested items are but not limited to safety gloves and overalls When fueling/de-fueling ALWAYS avoid inhaling fumes When de-fueling ALWAYS use a propriety fuel retriever ALWAYS carry fuel in the correct and clearly marked container Vibrations Prolonged use of hand held (operated) machines will cause the user to feel the effects of/from vibrations. These vibrations can lead to white finger (Raynaud's phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition reduces the ability of the hand to feel and regulate temperature, causing numbness and heat sensations and may cause nerve damage and circulatory tissue death. Page 6

7 Not all factors that lead to white finger disease are known, but cold weather, smoking and other diseases that affect blood vessels and blood circulation as well as large and long-lasting impact of shocks are considered factors in the formation of white finger. Note the following to reduce the risk the white finger and carpal tunnel syndrome: Wear gloves and keep your hands warm Take regular breaks All of the above precautions may help reduce the risk of white finger disease but not rule out carpal tunnel syndrome. Long-term and regular users are therefore recommended to observe the condition of your hands and fingers. Seek medical attention immediately if any of the above symptoms should occur Noise The operating noise of the machine can damage your hearing. Wear hearing protection such as earplugs or ear defenders to protect your hearing. Longterm and regular users are advised to have hearing checked regularly. Be especially vigilant and cautious when wearing hearing protection because your ability to hear alarm warnings will be reduced Noise emissions for this equipment is unavoidable. Carry out noisy work at approved times and for certain periods. Limit the working time to a minimum. For your personal protection and protection of people working nearby it is also advisable for them to wear hearing protection See CERTIFICATE of CONFORMITY section for Outdoor Noise declaration of conformity. 2.

STARTING & STOPPING THE MACHINE The machine is shipped without oil, therefore you MUST fill the engine with oil before starting the engine. Failure to do so will result in engine damage which will not be covered by warranty Checking oil level, filling with oil Park the machine on a level surface and stop the engine Allow the engine to cool Clean around the oil dipstick Pull out the dipstick (1) and wipe the end clean Slide the dipstick fully into the dipstick tube and tighten it Remove the dipstick and look at the end If the oil level is low (3), slowly pour only enough oil SAE10W30 into the dipstick tube to raise the level to the full mark (2). DO NOT overfill with oil as this can result in engine damage Replace and tighten dipstick after filling with oil Filling with fuel Park the machine on a level surface and stop the engine Allow the engine to cool Clean around the fuel tank cap and remove it Add fresh unleaded petrol into the fuel tank, until the level is 1 inch below the bottom of the filler neck. Important: This space in the tank allows petrol to expand. DO NOT completely fill the fuel tank. Page 14

15 Refit the fuel tank cap securely Wipe up any petrol that may have been spilt Discharge chute. Never operate the vacuum unless the bag is installed. An uncovered discharge opening will allow objects to be thrown in operator s or bystander s direction which may cause serious injury Traction drive belt. The traction belt drive pulley is rotating whenever the engine is running, even when the traction drive is disengaged. Contact with the pulley could cause severe injury. Stay away from moving pulleys and other moving parts Starting the engine Move the fuel lever (1) to the ON position To start a COLD engine, move the choke lever (2) to the CLOSED position To start a WARM engine leave the choke in the open position Once the engine is running move the choke lever to make the engine run smoothly Move the throttle lever on the handle bar to slow position Turn the engine switch (1) to the ON position Pull the recoil starter grip Pull the starter grip lightly until you feel resistance, then pull briskly. Return the starter grip gently Pulling the starter grip operates the recoil starter to crank the engine. Page 15

16 Setting the engine speed Position the throttle lever (1) for the desired engine speed Moving the throttle lever in the direction shown makes the engine run faster or slower Stopping the engine To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn the engine switch to the OFF position Under normal conditions, use the following procedure Move the throttle lever to slow position Turn the engine switch to OFF position Turn the fuel lever to the OFF position. When the engine is not in use it is advisable to leave the fuel lever in the OFF position to prevent carburetor flooding or fuel leaks Moving machine forward Hold the traction drive lever (2) against the handle (1) to move forward. Release the traction drive lever to stop forward motion Adjusting the Intake housing height (See ) You can adjust the clearance between the air intake housing and the ground by moving height adjustment control to desired position. Set the height to lower for vacuuming hard surfaces such as sidewalks or driveways and higher for thick lush turf with a heavy covering of leaves or clippings. The vacuum will work best when you keep the intake as close to the ground as is practical for the task you are performing Stop the engine When the handle is rotated clockwise, the vacuum snout will lower, and when the handle is rotated anti-clockwise the vacuum snout will rise After the lifting handle is clamped into the U groove it makes sure that the vacuum snout assembly will not drop when in use Return the castor wheels to the ground Debris bag. A worn debris bag could allow small stones and other similar debris to be thrown in the operator s or bystander s direction and result in serious personal injury or death to the operator or bystanders. You MUST check the debris bag frequently. If it is damaged, install a new debris bag. Page 16

17 Emptying the debris bag When the debris bag is full, empty it as follows: Note: You do not need to remove the bag to empty it Drive to the location where you want to dump the debris Stop the engine Open the side of the bag (1) and dump the contents Using the bag vent (2) The bag has a zippered vent. When vacuuming an area which is basically free of dust, the side vent should be open to allow free movement of air. When vacuuming a dusty area, close the vent Keep the inside of the bag clean to allow the air to circulate properly. Page 17

Checking oil level, filling with oil Park the machine on a level surface and stop the engine Allow the engine to cool Clean around the oil dipstick Pull out the dipstick (1) and wipe the end clean Slide the dipstick fully into the dipstick tube and tighten it Remove the dipstick and look at the end If the oil level is low (3), slowly pour only enough oil SAE15W40 into the dipstick tube to raise the level to the full mark (2). DO NOT overfill with oil as this can result in engine damage Replace and tighten dipstick after filling with oil 8.3. Change the engine oil Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and completely Place a suitable container (1) below the engine to catch the used oil, then remove the filler cap/dipstick (2), drain plug (3), and washer Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the drain plug, washer, and tighten drain plug securely. Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed container to your local recycling center or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in your domestic waste, pour it on the ground, or down a drain With the engine in a level position, fill to the outer edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended oil Screw in the filler cap/dipstick securely Air filter. Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air filter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This type of damage is not covered by the warranty A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas, clean the air filter more often than specified in the maintenance schedule Remove the wing nut (1), and remove the air cleaner cover (2) Carefully remove plastic grid from the bottom of the cover. Page 20

21 Carefully remove the foam air filter from the cover (3). Wash the filter in warm, soapy water, rinse, and allow to dry thoroughly Wipe dirt from the inside of the air cleaner base and cover, using a moist rag. Be careful to prevent dirt from entering the air duct that leads to the carburetor Insert the cleaned, dry or new foam air filter in the cover and replace plastic grid Reinstall the air cleaner assembly. Make sure the gasket is in place beneath the air filter Tighten the air filter wing nut securely Sediment cup cleaning. Petrol is highly flammable and explosive. You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel. Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away. Only handle fuel outdoors. Wipe up spills immediately Place a suitable container (3) to catch any fuel (4) Move the fuel valve to the OFF position, then remove the fuel sediment cup and O-Ring Wash the sediment cup (2) and O-ring in nonflammable solvent, and dry them thoroughly Place the O-ring in the fuel valve, and install the sediment cup. Tighten the sediment cup securely Move the fuel valve to the ON position, and check for leaks. Replace the O-ring if there is any leakage Spark plug. To avoid burn hazard DO NOT touch the exhaust muffler just after stopping the petrol engine stopping. The spark plug must be tightened securely, or it may become very hot and may cause damage to the engine Spark plug type: BPR6ES (NGK) or NHSP LD F7RTC Page 21

22 To make sure that the engine runs normally the gap of the spark plug must be correct (0.7mm to 0.8mm) and no carbon deposits around the spark plug Remove the spark plug cap Remove the spark plug using the supplied spark plug wrench Visually check the spark plug. Clear away any dirt or carbon deposits from the spark plug electrode. Clean with a steel brush. If the insulator is damaged, replace the spark plug instead Measure the spark plug clearance with a feeler. The clearance should be 0.7mm to 0.8mm If adjustment is necessary, bend the side electrode carefully Check if the spark plug sealing washer is in good conditions To prevent possible cross threading screw the spark plug in by hand, and then screw in by a spark plug wrench and compress the sealing washer N.B. If a new spark plug is being used once tightened twist by an extra ½ turn to make sure gasket is fully compressed. If reinstalling the used spark plug, just more twist 1 /8 to 1 /4 turns Refit the spark plug HT lead. 9. STORAGE & TRANSPORTATION 9.1. Storage Stop the engine and remove the HT lead from the spark plug Remove dirt and grime from the external parts of the entire machine, especially the engine. Clean dirt and debris from the outside of the engine cooling system. Important: DO NOT pressure wash the engine Remove all fuel from the system Drain the fuel tank and carburetor by placing an approved petrol container (3) below the carburetor, and use a funnel to avoid spilling fuel Remove the carburetor drain bolt (1) and sediment cup (2), then move the fuel valve lever to the ON position After all the fuel (4) has been drained refit the sediment cup and drain bolt. Page 22

23 Change the engine oil Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and completely Place a suitable container (1) below the engine to catch the used oil, then remove the filler cap/dipstick (2), drain plug (3), and washer Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the drain plug, washer, and tighten drain plug securely. Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed container to your local recycling center or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash; pour it on the ground, or down a drain With the engine in a level position, fill to the outer edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended oil Screw in the filler cap/dipstick securely. Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage. The oil sensor will automatically stop the engine before the oil level falls below the safe limit. However, to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, fill to the upper limit, and check the oil level regularly Remove the spark plug Pour a tablespoon of clean engine oil into the cylinder Pull the starter rope several times to distribute the oil in the cylinder Reinstall the spark plug Pull the starter rope slowly until resistance is felt and the notch on the starter pulley aligns with the hole at the top of the recoil starter cover. This will close the valves so moisture cannot enter the engine cylinder. Return the starter rope gently Storage precautions If your engine is going to be stored with petrol in the fuel tank and carburetor, it is important to reduce the hazard of petrol vapor ignition. Select a wellventilated storage area away from any appliance that operates with a flame, such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer. Also avoid any area with a spark-producing electric motor, or where power tools are operated If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that promotes rust and corrosion Unless all fuel has been drained from the fuel tank, leave the fuel valve lever in the OFF position to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage Position the equipment so the engine is level. Tilting can cause fuel or oil leakage. Page 23

24 With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the machine to keep out dust. A hot engine and exhaust system can ignite or melt some materials. DO NOT use sheet plastic as a dust cover. A nonporous cover will trap moisture around the engine, promoting rust and corrosion Removal from storage Check your machine/engine as in chapter 6 of this manual If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with fresh fuel. If you keep a container of petrol for refueling, make sure that it contains only fresh petrol. Petrol oxidizes and deteriorates over time, causing difficulty in starting If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the engine may smoke briefly at startup. This is normal Transporting If the machine/engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before loading the engine-powered equipment on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some materials Keep the machine/engine level when transporting to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage. Move the fuel valve lever to the OFF position. Page 24
