Why my Stihl Blower engine does not start?

If your Stihl Blower's engine won't start, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if there is sufficient fuel in the fuel tank and refuel if necessary. Another cause may be a hot carburetor. In this case, cool down the blower and press the manual fuel pump bulb at least ten times, even if the bulb is already filled with fuel, before attempting to start the engine. Also, the carburetor may be iced up. If so, allow the engine to warm up gradually to a temperature of about 50 °F (10 °C).
