Keep bystanders away Make sure the battery is removed prior to changing accessories. 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. Li-Ion battery This product has been marked with a symbol relating to ‘separate collection’ for all battery packs and battery pack. It will then be recycled or dismantled in order to reduce the impact on the environment. Battery packs can be hazardous for the environment and for human health since they contain hazardous substances. Do not burn Batteries may enter water cycle if disposed improperly, which can be hazardous for ecosystem. Do not dispose of waste batteries as unsorted municipal waste.

Charging the battery pack (See Fig. A2) NOTE

• The batteries are shipped uncharged. Each bat- tery must be fully charged before the rst use.

• Always fully charge the two batteries at same time. More details can be found in charger’s manual. WARNING! The charger and battery pack are specially designed to work together, so do not attempt to use any other devices. Never insert or allow metallic objects into your charger or battery pack connections because of an electrical failure and hazard will occur.

Checking the battery condition (See Fig. A3) NOTE

Fig. A3 only applies for the battery pack with battery indicator light.

Installing & removing the battery pack (See Fig. B, C) NOTE

• This machine will only run when 2 batteries are installed. It is recommended to use the same two batteries and charge the two bat- teries at the same time.9

• When you use two batteries with different power,the machine will only run to the level of the lowest charged battery.

OPERATIONStarting & Stopping (See Fig. D)WARNING! The tool runs for a few seconds after it has been switched off.Let the motor come to a complete standstill before setting the tool down.

OFF Adjusting the blowing speed / air volume with 3-speed switch (See Fig. E)USER TIPS- Hold the blower tube approximately 8” above the ground when operating the tool.Use a sweeping motion from side to side. - After blowing the debris/leaves into a pile, it is easy to dispose of the pile.Caution!- Do not blow hard objects such as nails, bolts, or rocks.- Do not operate the blower near bystanders or pets.- Use extra care when cleaning debris from stairs or other tight areas.- Wear safety goggles or other suitable eye protection, long pants, and shoes.

Turbo button for power boostingNOTE: • Turbo button for power boosting can increase air ow signicantly, and it can be used for clearing heavy or wet debris.• First switch on the blower and select a speed control (speed 1, 2 or 3), then depress the turbo button and hold it.Release the Turbo button, the blower will return toEN

the previously selected speed.

The ambient temperature range for the use and stor- age of tool and battery is 0 ℃-45 ℃ (32 ℉-113 ℉). The recommended ambient temperature range for the charging system during charging is 0 ℃-40 ℃ (32 ℉-104 ℉).

Clean the tool regularly. WARNING! Keep your product dry. Under no circumstances spray with water. - To clean the tool, use only mild soap and a damp cloth. - Do not use any type of detergent, cleaner or solvent which may contain chemicals that could seriously damage the plastic. - Self lubricating bearings are used in your product, therefore lubrication is not required.

Uncertainty K=3 m/s² 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 main- tained. Using the correct accessory for the tool and ensur- ing 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 signicantly reduce11

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 instruc- tions 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 vibra- tion tool use across a number of days. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Waste electrical products must not be disposed of with household waste.
