READ THIS FIRST!
For your safety, read this Owner’s Manual and understand it thoroughly before operating this POWER BLOWER.
G
eneral
A power blower is a high-speed power tool, not a toy. For your own safety and the safety of others, read and be sure you
understand all of the safety precautions contained in the Owner’s Manual before operating the power blower. Keep this
Owner’s Manual, and make it available to all persons who will be using the power blower. Periodically, review the manual
to refresh your understanding of the safety instructions contained in it.
•
Careless or improper use can cause serious injury.
Obey the safety instructions contained in this manual as well as all applicable governmental and workplace safety
standards, regulations and ordinances. Your authorized Kawasaki dealer can show you how to operate your power
blower properly.
•
High pressure of blowing air flow or small blown objects could injure eyes.
Do not direct airthe blast towards people or animals.
•
Do not allow children to operate the power blower.
Operators must have sufficient size, strength and maturity to be able to lift and operate the power blower correctly for
extended periods of use. They must also be able to read, understand and follow the safety instructions in this manual.
•
Exhaust fumes contain poisonous carbon monoxide gas.
Operate your power blower only outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Stop the engine immediately if exhaust fumes cause
you to experience symptoms of headache or nausea.
•
Gasoline is highly flammable and can be explosive under certain conditions.
Before refueling, stop the engine and allow it to cool. Do not smoke. Make sure areathe is well ventilated and free from
any source of flame or sparks, including appliances with a pilot light. Wipe up fuel spills immediately. Check for and
repair
an they fuel leaks before starting power blower.
O
perator
•
Inattention or fatigue can lead to serious injury.
Never operate the power blower under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Do not use the power blower if you are sick
or taking medication that causes drowsiness. If you get tired while using the power blower, take a break.
•
Always wear appropriate protective gear to avoid injury.
Eye protection in the form of goggles or properly fitted safety glasses must be worn. Hearing protection, such as
earplugs, should also be used. Have your hearing checked regularly. Protect your hands and feet by always wearing
heavy-duty boots and non-slip gloves when operating the power blower.
•
Loose clothing or hair can lead to injury.
Unconfined hair and loose articles of clothing such as scarves, neckties, jewelry, and so forth, can be drawn into
intake of
the
thethe power blower. Always wear sturdy close-fitting long-sleeve shirts and long pants that still allow
freedom of movement. Secure hairyour to itkeep away from blower intake.
•
Stop the engine and make sure that the
blower fan is completely stopped before cleaning, checking doing any
maintenace or working on the power blower.
•
Gasoline is highly flammable and can burn or irritate skin.
Change clothing immediately if fuel is spilled on it. Never remove fuel cap while the engine is running.
•
Be alert for signs of repetitive stress injury.
Using a power blower or any vibrating machinery over a period of time may cause numbness, burning sensations, or
other indications of injury. If you experience any such symptoms, discontinue use of the power blower and consult your
doctor.
P
ower Blower
•
Modifying the power blower may make it unsafe.
Never modify your power blower, except as advised by Kawasaki in writing. Use only Kawasaki supplied or approved
attachments and repair parts.
•
Recoil starter rope can injure you if released suddenly.
When starting the engine, grasp the recoil starter firmly by the grip. Do not grasp the starter rope itself. Always control
the rope during rewind into the
the
housing. Releasing the starter rope suddenly may allow the rope to whip around and
injure you or damage the recoil starter mechanism.
•
Proper maintenance is essential for safety.
A well-maintained power blower is safer and operates more efficiently. Regularly check power blower adjustments and
replace worn or damaged parts. A worn out or damaged muffler can emit sparks and cause a fire. Increased noise
levels can lead to hearing loss. Observe maintenance schedule in the Owner’s Manual.
•
Store power blower safely to prevent fire or equipment damage.
To avoid fuel leakage and fire hazard, always empty the fuel tank and r theun carburetor dry before storing your power
blower. Old fuel can clog the carburetor and lead to hard starting or poor running conditions. Store
your
power blower in
a dry, secure location out of the reach of children. When transporting poyour wer blower in a vehicle, take precautions
to secure it against damage from falling over and fuel spillage.

EMISSION CONTROL INFORMATION
Fuel Information
THIS ENGINE IS CERTIFIED TO OPERATE ON UNLEADED REGULAR GRADE GASOLINE ONLY.
A minimum of 87 octane of the antiknock index is recommended. The antiknock index is posted on service station
pumps in the U.S.A.
Emission Control Information
To protect the environment in which we all live, Kawasaki has incorporated exhaust emission control system
(EM) in
an
compliance with applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the California
Air
Resources Board. Also, depending on when your engine was produced, it may have an assigned emissions durability
period.
* See below for the engine emissions durability period that may apply to your engine.
Exhaust Emission Control System
This system reduces the amount of pollutants discharged into the atmosphere by the exhaust of this engine. The fuel,
ignition and exhaust systems of this engine have been carefully designed and constructed to ensure an efficient engine
with low exhaust pollutant levels.
Engine Emissions Durablity Period
California All Other States
Model Year - 2000 and later Engines less than 50 cc
Durability Period - 300 hours Model Year -

* If your engine has an assigned emissions durability period it will be located on the certification label attached
to the engine (IMPORTANT ENGINE INFORMATION : useful life hours).
Maintenance and Warranty
Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure that your power blower will continue to have low emission levels. This
Owner’s
Manual contains those maintenance recommendations for your engine. Those items identified by the Periodic
Maintenance Chart are necessary to ensure compliance with the applicable standards.

Fuel and Oil
Type:
The fuel is mixture of gasoline and oil. A 50 to 1 mixture
is recommended (50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil). Mix it
thoroughly before pouring it into the power blower fuel
tank.
CAUTION
Alcohol or "gasohol" may damage the engine.
The power blower is designed to run on a 50-to-1
mixture of regular unleaded gasoline (87 octane)
and quality TC class 2–stroke oil or JASO FC
class for air-cooled engines.
The octane rating of gasoline is a measure of its
resistance to detonation or "knocking". Use a gasoline
with an octane rating equal to or higher than that shown
in the table below. The Antiknock Index is an average of
the Research Octane No. (RON) and the Motor Octane
No. (MON). The Antiknock Index is posted on service
station pumps in the U.S.A. If the Antiknock Index is not
posted, be sure the Research Octane No. is adequate.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 18
A. Idle Screw
Operation
Highly-pressurized air will blow out of the nozzle
if the engine is not idling at the proper speed
when carrying the power blower on your back.
To prevent injury, never point the nozzle at any
person or animal while the blower engine is
running.
WARNING
Warming Up
•
After allowing a few minutes warming-up period, run
the engine at the idling speed.
Idling speed is about 2,500 rpm.
CAUTION
Allow sufficient warm-up time to prevent engine
damage. The power blower should be run at idle
speed for a few minutes to allow it to warm up
before applying a load. This will allow oil to reach
all engine parts, and allow piston clearance to
reach design specifications.
•
•
Turn the idle screw counter-clockwise to decrease the
engine speed if idling speed is higer than 2,500 rpm.
Turn the idle screw clockwise to increase engine idle
speed if it does not run continuously.
