Debris mixed with cans, bottles and small amounts of sand can be vacuumed; however, it is not this machine's

primary purpose. Vacuuming cans, bottles and sand will affect the longevity of your machine.

Do not operate if excessive vibration occurs. If excessive vibration occurs, shut engine off immediately and check

OPERATION

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.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil) is an acceptable alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits

during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow mix ratio found on

stabilizer container. Run engine at least 10 min. after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach the carburetor.

Like all mechanical tools, reasonable care must be used when operating machine.

Inspect machine work area and machine before operating. Make sure that all operators of this

equipment are trained in general machine use and safety.

PUT OIL IN ENGINE BEFORE STARTING

STARTING

ENGINE: See engine manufacturer’s instructions for type and amount of oil and gasoline used. Engine

must be level when checking and filling oil and gasoline.

ENGINE SPEED: Controlled by throttle lever on the engine. Under normal conditions, operate at minimum

throttle to accomplish your current cleaning task.

PRIMER: Push primer.

THROTTLE: Move throttle control to fast position (on engine). Pull starting rope to start engine.

IF YOUR UNIT FAILS TO START:

See Troubleshooting on page 12.

HANDLING & TRANSPORTING:

Using two people to lift machine is recommended. Lift holding the handle and front of nozzle. Secure in place

during transport.See page 3 for weight specifications

Never lift the machine while the engine is running.

Part No 901009 Form No F040908A

LB Owner’s Manual

OPERATION

VACUUMING OPERATION

VACUUM NOZZLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT:is raised and lowered by adjusting front wheel height control.

FOR MAXIMUM PICKUP: Adjust nozzle close to debris, but without blocking airflow into the nozzle. NOTE:

Never bury nozzle into debris.

CLEARING A CLOGGED NOZZLE & EXHAUST:Turn engine off and wait for impeller to stop completely

and disconnect spark plug wire. Wearing durable gloves, remove clog. Danger, the clog may contain sharp

materials. Reconnect spark plug wire.

DEBRIS BAG

Debris bags are normal replaceable wear items.

Note: Frequently empty debris to prevent bag overloading with more weight than you can lift.

An optional bag and dust cover is available for use where debris will be vacuumed in dusty conditions (see Optional

Accessories shown on page 1).

DO NOT place bag on or near hot surface, such as engine. Run engine at 1/2 throttle for first 1/2 hour to condition

new bag. Your new bag requires a break-in period to condition the pores of the material against premature blockage.

The entire bag surface serves as a filter, and must be able to breath to have good vacuum performance.

Be sure engine has come to a complete stop before removing or emptying bag.

This vacuum is designed for picking up trash, organic material and other similar debris (see Safety Warnings

page 2 & 3).

However, many vacuums are used where dust is mixed with trash. Your unit can intermittently vacuum in dusty areas.

Dust is the greatest cause of lost vacuum performance. However, following these rules will help maintain your

machine's ability to vacuum in dusty conditions:

•Run machine at idle to quarter throttle.

•The debris bag must be cleaned more frequently. A vacuum with a clean, pillow soft bag will have good pickup

performance. One with a dirty, tight bag will have poor pickup performance. If dirty, empty debris and vigorously shake

bag free-of-dust.

•Machine or pressure-wash debris bag if normal cleaning does not fully clean bag. Bag should be thoroughly dry before

use.

Having one or more spare debris bags is a good way to reduce down time while dirty bags are being cleaned.

•DO NOT leave debris in bag while in storage.

COMPOST

Vacuumed leaves, grass and other organic material from your own yard can be emptied into a pile or composter to

provide enriched soil for later use as fertilizer in gardens and flower beds

NOTE: Allow green chips to dry before spreading around living plants.
