fire, or serious injury.
 Do not permit children to use snow blower. It is not a

blower. Use only as described in this manual.
 Do not handle charger, including charger plug, and char-
ger terminals with wet hands.
 Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any
opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything

away from openings and moving parts.
 Turn off all controls before removing battery.
 Do not operate snow blowers in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or

designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may
create a risk of fire.
 Use battery only with charger listed. For use with 40V
lithium-ion battery packs, see tool/appliance/battery

aged, have the charger replaced by an authorized service
center.
