Frequently Asked Questions - KG584.9 KRESS

How to charge the battery?

The battery is not charged upon purchase. Use the supplied KAC04 charger. Plug the charger into a mains socket, insert the battery into the charger. The indicator shows charging. Charge both batteries fully at the same time. Refer to the charger manual for more details.

What is the battery runtime?

Runtime depends on battery capacity and speed used. With a 4.0 Ah battery, runtime can vary from 15 to 30 minutes under normal use. Use turbo mode sparingly to save battery.

How to adjust the blowing speed?

Use the 3-speed switch located on the handle. Position 1: low, 2: medium, 3: high. For a temporary boost, press the turbo button while maintaining the selected speed; release to return to the previous speed.

Can I use the blower in the rain?

No, the blower is not designed for use in rain or on wet surfaces. Exposure to water can damage the device and pose an electric shock risk. Store it in a dry place.

How to clean the blower?

Disconnect the battery before any cleaning. Use a damp cloth with a little mild soap to wipe the exterior. Never use solvents, harsh detergents or pressurized water. The bearings are self-lubricated, no lubrication required.

What to do if the blower stops or vibrates abnormally?

Stop the device immediately and remove the battery. Inspect the tool for damage, tighten loose parts, clean any obstructions. If the problem persists, contact Kress customer service.

What accessories are recommended?

Use only genuine Kress accessories, such as the KAB04 battery (4.0 Ah) and KAC04 charger (4.0 A). The concentrator nozzle is included and focuses the airflow. Other accessories are available from your dealer.

How to store the blower and battery?

Store the device in a dry place out of reach of children. Remove the battery from the device when not in use. Keep the battery at room temperature, away from sunlight and heat. Recharge it every few months if stored for a long time.

Is the blower noisy?

The sound pressure level is 71.18 dB(A) and the sound power level is 80.1 dB(A). It is recommended to wear hearing protection during use to prevent hearing damage.

Can I use a single battery?

No, the blower requires two identical batteries to operate. Always insert two batteries of the same type and charge level. The machine will operate at the level of the weakest battery. Always charge both at the same time.

NOISE INFORMATION

A weighted sound pressure L	_pA = 71.18 dB(A)
K_pA	3.0 dB(A)
A weighted sound power L	_wA = 80.1 dB(A)
K_wA	3.0 dB(A)
Wear ear protection.

VIBRATION INFORMATION

Typical weighted vibration a	_h < 1.24 m/s^2
Uncertainty K=3 m/s ^2

The declared vibration total value may be used for comparing one tool with another, and may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING: The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used:

How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled.

The tool being in good condition and well maintained.

Using the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.

The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration accessories are used.

And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed

WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce

the exposure level over the total working period.

Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk.

ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades.

Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate). If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration accessories.

Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Waste electrical products must not be

disposed of with household waste. Please

recycle where facilities exist. Check with your

local authorities or retailer for recycling advice.
