OPERATING THE BLOWER<br />
See Figure 12.<br />
■ Slip arm through harness strap and onto shoulder,<br />
then repeat for the other shoulder. Adjust the straps<br />
to a comfortable position. Refer to Adjusting<br />
Harness Straps earlier in this manual. Remove unit<br />
for starting.<br />
■ Start the blower. Refer to Starting and Stopping<br />
earlier in this manual.<br />
■ Put on the blower again. The unit should be operated<br />
on the operator’s right side as shown.<br />
■ To keep from scattering debris, blow around the<br />
outer edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into<br />
the center of a pile.<br />
■ Operate power equipment at reasonable hours only<br />
— not early in the morning or late at night when<br />
people might be disturbed. Comply with the times<br />
listed in local ordinances.<br />
■ To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of<br />
equipment used at any one time.<br />
■ Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed<br />
to do the job.<br />
■ Check your equipment before operation, especially<br />
the muffler, air intakes, and air filters.<br />
■ Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before<br />
blowing. In dusty conditions, slightly dampen<br />
surfaces when water is available.<br />
■ Conserve water by using power blowers instead<br />
of hoses for many lawn and garden applications,<br />
including areas such as gutters, screens, patios,<br />

grills, porches, and gardens.<br />
■ Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly<br />
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.<br />
■ Use the wide sweeper nozzle for larger volume, so<br />
the air stream can work close to the ground.<br />
■ After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!<br />
Dispose of debris properly.<br />
Caution<br />
Do not place blower on top of or near loose<br />
debris. Debris may be sucked into blower intake<br />
vent resulting in possible damage to the unit.<br />
MAINTENANCE<br />
WARNING<br />
When servicing, use only identical <strong>Ryobi</strong><br />
replacement parts. Use of any other parts may<br />
create a hazard or cause product damage<br />
WARNING<br />
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses<br />
with side shields during power tool operation<br />
or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty,<br />
also wear a dust mask.<br />
GENERAL MAINTENANCE<br />
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most<br />
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of<br />
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.<br />
Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.<br />
WARNING<br />
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline,<br />
petroleumbased products, penetrating oils, etc.,<br />
come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can<br />
damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may<br />
result in serious personal injury.<br />
LUBRICATION<br />
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a<br />
sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of<br />
the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore,<br />
no further lubrication is required.<br />
SPARK ARRESTOR<br />
The muffler is equipped with a spark arrestor screen<br />
inside muffler body. After extended use the screen can<br />
become dirty and may need to have the muffler replaced<br />
by an authorized servicing dealer.<br />
