OPERATION
Blowing (Fig. 7)
Hold the blower firmly with a hand and perform the blow-
ing operation by moving it around slowly.
When blowing around a building, a big stone or a vehicle,
direct the nozzle away from them.
When performing an operation in corner, start from the
corner and then move to wide area.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-
tery cartridge is removed before attempting to perform
inspection or maintenance.
Cleaning (Fig. 8)
From time to time, wipe off the outside of the tool using a
cloth dampened in soapy water.
CAUTION:
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 9 & 10)
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be per-

Noise
The typical A-weighted noise level determined according
to EN50636:
Sound pressure level (L
Sound power level (L
Uncertainty (K): 2.5 dB (A)
Wear ear protection
Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) determined
according to EN50636:
Work mode: operation without load
Vibration emission (a
Uncertainty (K): 1.5 m/s
• The declared vibration emission value has been mea-
sured in accordance with the standard test method and
may be used for comparing one tool with another.
• The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
• The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared emission value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
• Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the oper-
ator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the
actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of
the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to
the trigger time).
