Refueling
1. Stop the engine before refueling. Keep away
from open flames and sparks. Never smoke
during refueling. Otherwise fire and/or explosion
may result.
2. Refuel outdoors. Refueling in a closed room can
cause explosion of fuel vapor.
3. Avoid contact with fuel or engine oil. Do not
inhale fuel vapor. If fuel or oil spills, wipe it off
of the machine and/or ground immediately. If
fuel spills on your clothes, change it immedi-
ately to prevent it from catching fire.
4. After refueling, carefully tighten the fuel tank
cap and check for fuel leak. Move at least 3 m
(10 feet) away from the fueling source and site
before starting engine.
5. Only transport and store fuel in approved con-
tainers. Keep children away from the stored
fuel.
Transportation
1. Stop the motor during transportation.
Otherwise unintentional start-up may cause injury.
2. Ensure safe position of the machine during car
transportation to avoid fuel leakage.
3. Lift the entire machine from the ground when
carrying the machine. Dragging the machine
causes fuel tank damage and fuel leakage, result-
ing in fire.
4. When transporting the equipment, carry it in a
horizontal position by holding the shaft. Keep
the hot muffler away from your body.
Vibration
1. Exposing to excessive vibration injures blood
vessels or nervous system of the operator and
causes the following symptoms in the fingers,
hands or wrists: "Falling asleep" (numbness),
tingling, pain, stabbing sensation, alteration of
skin color or of the skin. If any of these symp-
toms occur, see a physician.
To reduce the risk of "white finger disease",
keep your hands warm during operation and
well maintain the machine and accessories.

1. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure
the blower is in safe working condition.
2. If the parts are worn or damaged, replace them
with parts provided by Makita.

4.
vicing, storage, or changing accessory, switch
off the blower and make sure that all moving
parts come to a complete stop, and remove the
battery cartridge or the spark plug cap. Cool
down the blower before making any work on
the blower. Maintain the blower with care and
keep it clean.
5. Always cool down the blower before storing.
6. Do not expose the blower to rain. Store the
blower indoors.
7. When you lift the blower, be sure to bend your
knees and be careful not to hurt your back.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, never service the
equipment in the vicinity of fire.
9. Always clean dust and dirt off the equipment.
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol
or the like for the purpose. Discoloration, defor-
mation or cracks of the plastic components may
result.
10. After each use, tighten all screws and nuts,
except for the carburetor adjustment screws.
11. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair not
described in this instruction manual or the
instruction manual of the power unit. Ask our
authorized service center for such work.
12. Follow instructions for lubricating and chang-
ing accessories.
13. Always use the genuine spare parts and acces-
sories only. Using parts or accessories supplied
by a third party may result in the equipment break-
down, property damage and/or serious injury.
14. Request our authorized service center to
inspect and maintain the machine at regular
interval.
15. Before storing the machine, perform full clean-
ing and maintenance. Remove the spark plug
cap or the battery cartridge. Drain the fuel after
the engine gets cold.
16. Do not prop the equipment against something,
such as a wall. Otherwise it may fall suddenly
and cause an injury.
Battery tool use and care
1. Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
2. Use power tools only with specifically desig-
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
3. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects, that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be

ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-
tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
5. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-
aged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in
fire, explosion or risk of injury.
6. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or tem-
perature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
7. Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the instruc-
tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
