Retainer Cushion

1. Removed cushion (1 nut, 2 screws).
2. Installed new cushion (reverse of #1).

The upper and lower cushions were broken so I looked over everything and for me this was the best way! I took the carriage frame apart took air filter housing off so I could kinda fold everything back to unscrew the broken cushions plus I needed to check fuel tank it has a crack so a new one is in order. Most everything was either 8mm nut driver and a 8mm socket and ratchet with a #2 phillips screwdriver little more work taking frame brackets off but you can access everything easily so for me it was faster and only took maybe 30 mins

Just replaced the cushions using a socket set.

Took of clamps hold intake adapter. removed old adapter and replaced with new and tightened clamps.
Cushions had to remove back of blower to access screws that held cushions. Replace cushions and reinstalled back of blower.

Removed debris screen, used 3/8" wrench to remove inside nuts, used 3/8" x1/4" drive short socket removed outer nuts, removed broken insulator, installed new insulator re-installed nuts in reverse order, started leaf blower, smiled real big and exclaimed "mission accomplished".

Repair was simply remove old parts and replace with new. Really a no brainer.

Figured out how to detach the old mounts and install new. It was real tricky do to access points being hard to reach
