HANDLING & TRANSPORTING:

Using two people to lift machine is recommended. Lift holding the handle and handle brace. Secure in place during

transportation. See unit specifications on page 3 for unit weight.

Do not use the front grill as an anchor point when securing the unit for transport.

Never lift the machine while the engine is running.

BLOWING OPERATION

Your Billy Goat Force blower is equipped with an air director cone to allow the operator to direct the air stream up

or down as required to assist in moving debris. This feature is extremely useful when debris has piled up to the

point that it cannot be blown any farther. The air stream can be directed upward to blow the top of the debris pile

over and allow the operator to continue moving more debris farther.

ADJUSTING AIR DIRECTOR

To adjust air direction, first loosen knob and then position air director cone to desired angle. When the cone is at a

suitable position tighten knob to secure. DO NOT position director cone to where it will blow debris towards people,

vehicles or other objects in vicinity. Flying debris may damage, harm, or cause injury to people or objects in air flow

range.

IMPELLER REMOVAL

1. Wait for engine to cool and disconnect spark plug.

2. Remove housing front cover, by removing (11) bolts and nuts, items #13 & #14, around outside of front

cover.

3. Remove impeller bolt (item #35), lock washer (item #7) and washer (item #34).

4. DO NOT pry on impeller. Pull on center hub area only of impeller. If impeller slides off freely, proceed to

(step 6).

5. If the impeller does not loosen, obtain a 3/4-16x1” (25.4mm) or longer bolt. Thread bolt by hand into nut

until bolt rests against the shaft. Tighten the bolt slowly, which will pull the impeller away from the shaft,

remove impeller from shaft. Using a penetrating oil can help loosen a stuck impeller.

6. Reinstall new impeller in reverse order of removal.

7. Tighten impeller bolt. Torque impeller bolt (see parts list on page 14 for proper impeller bolt torque

specifications).

TIRE AIR PRESSURE

Check at regular intervals and maintain.

Front Tires - 24 Psi (165 kPa).

Rear Tires - 20 Psi (137 kPa).

STORAGE

Never store engine indoors or in enclosed poorly ventilated areas with fuel in tank, where fuel fumes may reach

an open flame, spark or pilot light, as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or other gas appliance.

If engine is to be unused for 30 days or more, prepare as follows:

Remove all gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts and

causing possible malfunction of engine. Drain fuel outdoors, into an approved container, away from open flame. Be

sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and engine runs out of gasoline.

Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil TM) is an acceptable alternative for minimizing the formation of gum

deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in storage container or fuel tank. Follow

stabilizer manufacturer’s instructions to determine proper mix ratio. Run engine at least 10

minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach carburetor.
