Introduction
The 32cc backpack blower is a full crank, 4-cycle

variety of brand names. This blower has 32cc’s of dis-
placement and produces a maximum of 475 cfm at 150
mph.
Disclaimer: This Professional Shop Manual is
intended for use by trained, professional technicians.
• Common sense in operation and safety is
assumed.
• In no event shall MTD be liable for poor text
interpretation, or poor execution of the proce-
dures described in the text.
• If the person using this manual is uncomfortable
with any procedures they encounter, they should
seek the help of a qualified technician.

Fasteners
• Most of the fasteners used on the blower are
sized in fractional inches. Some are metric.
For this reason, wrench sizes are frequently
identified in the text, and measurements are
given in U.S. and metric scales.
• If a fastener has a locking feature that has
worn, replace the fastener or apply a small
amount of releasable thread locking compound
such as Loctite® 242 (blue).
• Some fasteners like cotter pins are single-use
items that are not to be reused. Other fasteners
such as lock washers, retaining rings, and inter-
nal cotter pins (hairpin clips) may be reused if
the do not show signs of wear or damage. This
manual leaves that decision to the judgement of
the technician.
Assembly
Torque specifications may be noted in the part of the
text that covers assembly, they may also be summa-
rized in tables along with special instructions regarding
locking or lubrication.
Whichever method is more appropriate will be used. In
many cases, both will be used so that the manual is
handy as a quick-reference guide as well as a step-by-
step procedure guide that does not require the user to
hunt for information.
The level of assembly instructions provided will be
determined by the complexity of reassembly, and by
the potential for unsafe conditions to arise from mis-
takes made in assembly.
Some instructions may refer to other parts of the man-
ual for subsidiary procedures. This avoids repeating
the same procedure two or three times in the manual.
