Battery powered blowers do not have to be plugged into an electrical
outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be aware of
possible hazards when not using your battery powered blower or when
changing accessories. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious personal injury.
Wear heavy long pants, long sleeves and boots. Avoid loose garments or
jewelry that could get caught in moving parts of the machine or its motor.
Do not operate the equipment while barefoot or when wearing sandals or
similar lightweight footwear. Wear protective footwear that will protect your
feet and improve your footing on slippery surfaces.
Do not incinerate the appliance even if it is severely damaged. The batteries
can explode in a fire.
Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a
pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless
product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and
chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.
Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can result in
loss of balance.
Check the work area before each use. Remove all objects such as rocks,
broken glass, nails, wire, or string which can be thrown by or become entangled
in the machine.
Do not point the blower tube in the direction of people or pets.
Never run the unit without the proper equipment attached. Always ensure
that the blower tube is installed.
When not in use, the blower should be stored indoors in a dry, secure place
out of the reach of children.
Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 50 ft. away.
Blower service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of
injury.
When servicing a blower, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts
or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
