CPSC, Shindaiwa Inc. Announce Recall of Backpack Blowers Due to Fire Hazard
Product Description
The Shindaiwa gasoline-powered backpack blowers are red and black with a white fuel tank. Model numbers EB630 or EB630RT are printed on the body of the blowers, along with Shindaiwa.
Reason for Recall
The backpack blower's muffler support bracket can break, creating an opening in the muffler body. Hot exhaust gases could then escape from the muffler and melt the fuel tank or ignite grease or debris around the fuel tank, posing a fire hazard.
Remedy
Consumers should stop using the backpack blowers immediately and contact Shindaiwa for the closest dealer location to schedule a free inspection and a free repair, if necessary. Consumers who have registered their equipment will receive direct correspondence from Shindaiwa about this recall.
