Safety Information

Important - Please read these instructions fully before starting assembly

General Safety (continued)

• Disconnect the charger from the power supply before attempting to clean it to reduce the risk of an electric shock. Removing the battery pack alone does not reduce the risk.
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a blower. Do not use blower while tired, upset, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating blowers may result in serious personal injury.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts. Use of rubber gloves and substantial footwear is recommended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
• Secure long hair above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in moving parts.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or off position before inserting battery pack.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dusk mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
• Do not use on a ladder, rooftop, tree, or other unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better control of the blower in unexpected situations.
• Do not use blower if switch does not turn it on or off. A blower that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• For household use only.
• Remove or disconnect battery before servicing, cleaning or removing material from the gardening

appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the blower accidentally.

• Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause burns.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the blower's operation. If damaged, have the blower serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained blowers.
• Keep the blower and its handle dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any strong solvents to clean your blower. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.
  • Always wear eye protection when operating this equipment.
• Battery blowers do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operation condition. Beware 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.
• Do not place battery powered blowers or their batteries near fire or heat. Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The cell may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
• Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

Important - Please read these instructions fully before starting assembly

• 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 footing on slippery surfaces.
• 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.
• Don't Overreach - Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 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 or become entangled in the machine.
• Check Damaged Parts - Before further use of the appliance, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless indicated elsewhere in this manual.
• Do not point the blower nozzle in the direction of people or pets.

Important - Please read these instructions fully before starting assembly

General Safety (continued)

Disposal and Recycling

Recycle unwanted materials instead of disposing of them as waste. All tools, hoses and packaging should be sorted, taken to the local recycling centre and disposed of in an environmentally safe way.

Recycle rather than dispose of unwanted material in landfill whenever possible. The machine must be delivered in rigid packaging to avoid damage during transportation. The packaging and the machine itself are manufactured from recyclable materials and should be disposed of accordingly.
