Assembly
Completely assemble the mistblower before
its first use:
Assembly of misting equipment
Affix spraying-attachments to unit as shown
in Fig. 1 and 2. (Installation sequence from 1
to 6).
Make sure the elbow of the pleated hose is
pushed all the way over the welt on the blo-
wer outlet. Then tighten the clamp securely
(Fig. 1a, Pos. A).
Secure pleated hose to elbow with clamp
(Fig. 1a, Pos. B).
Check hose connection to on/off tap and re-
tighten cap nut if required (Fig. 3).
Shut on/off tap, fill some plain water in for-
mula tank and check for any leakage.
Note: The spray tube can be twisted and
turned in the pleated hose with the handle.
Ensure that all hose and cable connections are
safe and without sharp bends.
Starting the engine (Fig. 4+5)
1. Open fuel valve (ON).
2. Push primer (Fig A) until float-chamber is
filled with fuel (only when engine is cold).
3. Open throttle lever to half position (Pos.
START).
4. Close choke (B) only when engine
is cold.
5. Start engine with recoil starter.
Attention:
DO NOT yank starter suddenly; first pull
starter rope until pawls engage (resistance of
recoil spring is felt). Lead starter grip slowly
back to starter housing.
6. Open choke as soon as the engine
fires and "tries" to start. Repeat the
starting procedure if required.
Stopping the engine
Push throttle lever past minimum (idling) posi-
tion to STOP position. Close fuel tap (OFF).
Running-In Instructions
For the first 5 tank fillings, also when using
special 2-cycle oils, use a mixing ration of
25:1 (4%)!
- Smoking or open flame is prohibited
- Allow engine to cool before re-fueling
- Fuel may contain solvent-like substances.
Avoid skin and eye contact with mineral
products. Wear gloves while refueling. Fre-
quently change and clean protective clo-
thing. Do not inhale fuel vapors.
- Do not spill fuel or oil. In case of spillage,
immediately wipe off mistblower. Do not
allow fuel mix to contact clothing. If fuel
mix is spilled on clothing, change clothing
immediately.
- Ensure fuel or oil do not contaminate soil
(environmental protection). Always use a
suitable protective soil cover.
- Do not re-fuel in unventilated rooms. Fuel
vapors collect at ground level (danger of
explosion).
- Transport and store fuel and oil only in ap-
proved and clearly marked containers. Child-
ren should have no access to fuel or oil.
- Ensure you do not inhale exhaust fumes
while using the machine. The use of the
motorized mistblower is prohibited in closed
rooms.
The handling of fuel requires cau-
tion and consideration. It is impe-
rative that all safety instructions
are observed! Only refuel when
the engine has been stopped!
- Clean the area around filler inlet before
refueling.
- Remove tank lid and fill fuel mix up to the
lower edge of the filler neck. Do not overfill.
If possible, always use a fuel funnel with
filter.
- Fill in carde fully to avoid spilling of fuel or
oil.
