[. . . ] Important: Read this instruction manual carefully before putting the Blower into operation and strictly observe the safety regulations!We are pleased to be able to offer you the MAKITA blower, which is the result of a long development program and many years of knowledge and experience. the blower models BBX7600 combines the advantages of state-of-the-art technology with ergonomic design. They are of lightweight, handy, compact and represent professional equipment for a great variety of applications. [. . . ] 3) Please change the oil whenever it becomes dirty or significantly changes color. Recommended oil: Makita genuine oil or SAE10W-30 oil of API type SF grade or better (4 stroke motor oil for automobiles) Oil capacity: Approximately 0. If the blower is not stored in an upright position, the oil may flow from the level gauge into the engine and give a false reading when checking the oil level. This may result in inadvertently overfilling whenever adding engine oil. If the upper oil level limit is exceeded, this can result in the oil becoming dirty and white smoke from burning excess oil. Check Point #1: Concerning the oil cap when adding oil Wipe off dirt and grime around the opening before removing the oil cap. Remove the oil cap and place it on a clean surface so that it does not accumulate any sand, dirt, or other foreign bodies. These may stick to the cap and adulterate the engine oil if proper care is not taken. Dirty oil containing sand, dirt, or foreign bodies may cause excessive wear on the engine due to improper lubrication and result in a breakdown. Check Point #2: If oil is spilled when adding oil Oil spillage on the outside on the blower may result in the engine oil becoming dirty or adulterated. Therefore, please wipe off any oil spillage before starting the engine. When supplying the fuel, be sure to observe the following instructions to prevent ignition or fire: - - - - - Fuel supply must be made in a place free of fire. - Fuel sticking to the skin or entering an eye may cause allergies or irritation. Open the choke lever progressively while checking the engine operation. In cold or when the engine is cooled down, never open the choke lever suddenly. (10) Rotation of the engine speed stabilizes and when from low speed making at high-speed rotation, if reaches the point where it accelerates smoothly, it is completion of warming-up. The engine may be damaged if the choke lever is moved further beyond the "CLOSE" position. If the engine stops with an explosion sound or if the engine started, but stopped before operation of the choke lever, return this lever to the "OPEN" position and pull the starter handle several times to start the engine again. If the operator keeps pulling the starter handle several times with the choke lever left in the "CLOSE" position, the engine may be difficult to start because of over-suction of the fuel. In case of over-suction of the fuel, remove the spark plug and pull the handle several times rapidly to discharge any excess fuel. When the throttle valve does not return to a position in contact with the idling adjusting screw even if the throttle lever is set to the low speed, correct the control cable catching state to ensure proper return of the valve. (4) Hold the element cover with a left hand to prevent the engine from moving, settle down to take the stable position. [. . . ] Blowing air is taken in from the air inlet net When airflow has dropped down during operation, stop engine and inspect the air inlet net for blocking by obstacles. Note that failure to remove any such obstacles may result in the engine becoming overheated and damaged. Before each use, check that the net is attached in place and is free from any damage. In reassembling after the engine is dismounted, be sure to replace the gaskets and packings with new ones. [. . . ]
