Never let children or people unfamiliar with these instructions use this gardening tool. Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the device.

Safety notices for the charger

⚠ WARNING! Carefully read all safety notices and instructions. Failure to comply with safety notices and instructions can cause electric shock, fire and/or severe injuries.

Store all safety notices and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" used in the safety instructions refers to mains-powered tools (with a mains cable) and to battery-powered tools (without a mains cable).

Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

• The electrical tool's connection plug must fit into the socket. The plug may not be modified in any way. Do not use an adaptor plug together with earthed electric tools. Unmodified plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock
• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces, such as pipes, heaters, ovens and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.

• Keep electric tools away from rain and moisture. Water entering an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

• Do not use the cable for another purpose, for example, carrying or hanging the electric tool or pulling the plug out of the socket. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving device parts. Damaged or coiled cables increase the risk of an electric shock.

• If you work with an electric tool outdoors, only use extension cables that are also suitable for outdoor use. Using an extension cable suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of an electric shock.
• If you cannot avoid using the electrical tool in a wet environment, use a fault-current circuit breaker. Using a fault-current circuit breaker reduces the risk of an electric shock.

Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention white operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If dust extraction and collection devices can be mounted, make sure that they are connected and used properly. Using a dust extraction unit can reduce hazards caused by dust.

Power tool use and care

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Careful handling and use of Battery devices

• Charge the batteries only in chargers that are recommended by the manufacturer. Risk of fire if a charger that is suitable for a specific type of battery is used with other batteries
• In the power tools, use only the batteries designed for the purpose. The use of other batteries may result in injuries and risk of fire
• Keep the unused battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other small metal objects, which could cause bridging of the contacts. A short circuit between the battery contacts may cause burns or fire
• If used incorrectly, liquid may leak from the battery. Avoid contact with this. In the event of accidental contact, rinse off with water. If the liquid gets into eyes, seek medical assistance. Leaking battery fluid may cause skin irritations or burns
• Observe the operating manual and the safety instructions enclosed with the rechargeable battery or charging unit.

Service

- Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained

Safety notices for the blower

• This machine is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the machine by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the machine.
• The operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their property.
• Other persons and animals should remain at a distance of 3 metres or more when the machine is being used. The operator is responsible for third persons in the working area.
• Never operate the machine while people, especially children or pets, are nearby.
• Use the machine only in daylight or good artificial light.
• Do not operate the machine when barefoot or wearing open sandals, always wear substantial footwear and long trousers.
• Failure to keep loose clothing from being drawn into air intake could result in personal injury.
• Do not operate without tubes in place.
• Failure to keep long hair away from the air inlet could result in personal injury.
• Always be sure of your footing on slopes.
• Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris.
• Never blow debris in the direction of bystanders.
• Do not make any changes to the leaf blower. Unauthorised changes can impair safety and lead to increased noise and vibrations.
• Never overexert yourself and always maintain balance
• Walk calmly, never run quickly
• Do not work with the gardening tool during adverse weather conditions, in particular if a storm is approaching.

Safety notices for Li-Ion batteries

• Do not open the battery. Risk of short-circuiting!
• Protect the battery from heat, e.g. from constant sun exposure, and from fire, water and humidity. Risk of explosion.
• When the battery has been damaged or it is being used inappropriately, fumes can be released. Let fresh air in and consult a doctor if the fumes cause you any problems. The fumes can irritate the respiratory tract.

• 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 or burns.

• Only use original batteries with the voltage specified on the rating plate of your power tool. If other batteries are used, e.g. imitations, reconditioned batteries or products from third party manufacturers, there is a risk of personal injury as well as property damage based on exploding batteries.

• The battery voltage must correspond with the battery charging voltage of the charger. Otherwise, there is a risk of fire and explosion.
• Charge the batteries only in chargers that have been recommended by the manufacturer. There is a risk of fire if a charger for a particular type of battery is used for another type of battery.
• The battery can be damaged by sharp objects such as a nail or screwdriver or by external application of force. The battery may short-circuit and start burning, smoking, exploding or overheating.

Warning! This electric tool generates an electromagnetic field during operation. This field can impair active or passive medical implants under certain conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with medical implants consult with their physician and the manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operating the electric tool.
