CLEAN AIR FILTER
A dirty air filter decreases engine per-
formance and increases fuel con-
sumption and harmful emissions. Al-
ways clean after every 5 hours of
operation.
1. Clean the cover and the area
around it to keep dirt from falling
into the carburetor chamber when
the cover is removed.
2. Remove parts by pressing latch to
release air filter cover.
NOTE: To avoid creating a fire hazard
or producing harmful evaporative
emissions, do not clean filter in gaso-
line or other flammable solvent.
3. Wash the filter in soap and water.
4. Allow filter to dry.
5. Add a few drops of oil to the filter;
squeeze the filter to distribute oil.

INSPECT MUFFLER AND SPARK
ARRESTING SCREEN
'_WARNING: The muffler on this
product contains chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer.
_,WARNING: Muffler is very hot
during and after use. Do not touch the
muffler or allow combustible material
such as dry grass or fuel to do so.
As your unit is used, carbon deposits
build up on the muffler and spark ar-
resting screen. For normal homeown-
er use, however, the muffler and spark
arresting screen will not require any
service. After 50 hours of use, we rec-
ommend that your muffler be serviced
or replaced by your Sears Service Cen-
ter.
