hex-head capscrews, two spacers, and two locknuts,
positioning the bolt heads on the thick side of the
blade (Fig. 26).

Curve the rotor blade and secure it with the remaining
four torx screws and locknuts, positioning the screw
heads on the thick side of the blade (Fig. 26).

Preparing
the Fuel System

a fuel stabilizer/conditioner to the fuel in the fuel
tank as directed.
Note:
A fuel stabilizer/conditioner works best when you
mix it it with fresh gasoline.

Tor
o Heavy Duty 50:1 All Season 2-Cycle
Engine Oil with Fuel Stabilizer
, you do not need to add a
fuel stabilizer/conditioner
.
