Background

The Craftsman Blower 358.797251 is a gasoline-powered tool manufactured by Poulan/WeedEater for Sears under the Craftsman brand. This blower is designed to efficiently clear out debris from outdoor spaces such as gardens and patios. The blower's key features include mulching blades, which are used to reduce debris at a ratio of up to 16:1, making it useful for maintaining clean outdoor areas. The unit also comes with a throttle lock that is used to hold the throttle in the run and starting positions, a throttle trigger that controls engine speed, and a choke that helps supply fuel to the engine to aid in cold starting.

When it comes to starting the engine, the Craftsman Blower 358.797251 has a primer bulb that removes air from the carburetor and fuel lines, filling them with fuel, which allows the engine to start with fewer pulls on the starter rope. The ON/STOP switch is used to stop the engine. To ensure longevity and durability, it is recommended to regularly check for loose fasteners and parts, check for damaged or worn parts, clean the unit and labels, clean the air filter and replace the spark plug as part of routine maintenance.
