OPERATION
◾
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to battery pack, picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the
appliance with your finger on the switch or energizing appliance that have the
switch on invites accidents.
◾
Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts. Keep clear of the discharger
opening at all times.
◾
Exercise extreme caution when operating on or crossing gravel drives, walks, or
roads. Stay alert for hidden hazards or traffic.
◾
After striking a foreign object, stop the motor, remove the battery pack(s),
thoroughly inspect the snow blower for any damage, and repair the damage
before restarting and operating the snow blower.
◾
If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the motor and check
immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
◾
Stop the motor whenever you leave the operating position, before unclogging
the auger assembly housing or discharge chute, and when making any repairs,
adjustments or inspections.
◾
When clearing, repairing or inspecting the snow blower, stop the motor and make
certain the auger assembly and all moving parts have stopped. Remove the
battery pack(s) to prevent someone from accidentally starting the motor.
◾
Exercise extreme caution when operating on slopes.
◾
Never operate the snow blower without proper guards and other safety protective
devices in place and working.
◾
Never direct the discharge toward people or areas where property damage can
occur. Keep children and others away.
◾
Do not overload the machine capacity by attempting to clear snow at too fast a
rate.
◾
Disengage power to the auger assembly when snow blower is transported or not
in use.
◾
Use only attachments and accessories approved by the manufacturer of the snow
blower (such as scraper bar).
◾
Never operate the snow blower without good visibility or light. Always be sure of
your footing, and keep a firm hold on the handles. Walk; never run.
◾
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to
fire or temperature above 212 °F (100°C) may cause explosion.
