General Safety Warnings and Instructions for
Battery-Powered Products
This section contains the general safety warnings and
instructions for battery-powered products contained in
UL 2595 / CSA C22.2 No. 0.23.
WARNING
￭ Read all safety warnings and instructions.
￭ Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result
in electric shock, fire, explosion and/or serious injury or
property damage.
￭ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the trigger switch is
in the off-position before inserting the battery, picking up
or carrying the blower. Carrying the blower with your finger
0458-008-8601-A
on the trigger switch or inserting the battery with the
trigger switch engaged increases the likelihood of
unintended starting and possible accidents.
￭ Remove the battery from the blower before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
blower accidentally.
￭ Recharge only with the charger specified by STIHL. A
charger that is suitable for one type of battery may create
a risk of fire when used with another battery.
￭ Use the blower only with the specifically designated
batteries. Use of any other battery may create a risk of fire
or explosion and personal injury or property damage.
￭ When the battery is not in use, keep it away from other
metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails or other
small metal objects that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Do not store it in a metal container.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns
or a fire or explosion.
￭ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the
battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush
with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation, chemical burns or respiratory illness from
inhalation.
￭ Do not use a battery or blower that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion and risk
of injury or property damage.
￭ Do not expose a battery or the blower to fire or excessive
temperature. Exposure to fire or temperatures above
212 °F (100 °C) may cause fire and explosion.
￭ Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery outside of the ambient temperature range
specified. Charging improperly or outside the specified
range may damage the battery and increase the risk of
fire.
￭ Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts.
