Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris.
Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects such as 

rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string which can be blown a 

considerable distance by high velocity air.

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A 

charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a 

risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
Use  power  tools  only  with  specifically  designated  battery  packs. 

Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal 

objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small 

metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to 

another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns 

or a fire.

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery 

pack; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. 

If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected 

from the battery pack may cause irritation or burns.

Do  not  use  a  battery  pack  or  tool  that  is  damaged  or  modified. 

Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour 

resulting in fire, explosion, or risk of injury.
Do  not  expose  a  battery  pack  or  tool  to  fire  or  excessive 

temperatures.  Exposure  to  fire  or  excessive  temperature  above 

130°C may cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack 

or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. 

Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range 

may damage the battery pack and increase the risk of fire.

OPERATION

Operate the product only at reasonable hours – not early in the 

morning or late at night when people might be disturbed.
Never operate the product in an explosive atmosphere.
Avoid using the product in bad weather conditions especially when 

there is a risk of lightning.
Do not operate in poor lighting. The operator requires a clear view 

of the work area to identify potential hazards.
Use of hearing protection reduces the ability to hear warnings 

(shouts or alarms). The operator must pay extra attention to what is 

going on in the working area.
Do not get distracted and always concentrate on your task. 
Operating similar tools nearby increases both the risk of hearing 

injury and the potential for other persons to enter your working area.

Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can 

result in loss of balance.
Always be sure of the footing on slopes. Walk, never run.
Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part. Rotating 

impeller blades can cause severe injury.
Never run the product without the proper equipment attached.
Do not operate the product without both the nozzle and lower tube 

attached.
Do not modify the product in any way or use parts and accessories 

that are not recommended by the manufacturer.

 

WARNING! 

If the product is dropped, suffers heavy impact, 

or begins to vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the product 

and inspect for damage or identify the cause of the vibration. Any 

damage should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised 

service centre.
To reduce the risk of injury associated with contacting rotating parts, 

always stop the product and remove the battery pack. Make sure all 

moving parts have come to a complete stop:

 

before leaving the product unattended

 

before clearing blockages

 

before checking, cleaning, or working on the product.

 

to inspect the product after striking a foreign object.

Immediately switch off and remove the battery pack in the event of 

accident or breakdown. Do not operate the product again until it has 

been fully checked by an authorised service centre.

The product is provided with a cruise control lever near the 

trigger

. Cruise control sets the speed at a convenient level to 

provide enough power to achieve the task. Low running speed 

will help reduce noise and vibration. Cruise control helps reduce 

operator fatigue.

Press  the  turbo  boost  to  increase  the  air  flow  to  the  maximum 

velocity. The turbo boost will override the cruise control feature. The 

blower will return to the previously selected speed when the button 

is released. 

 

WARNING! Setting the cruise control will operate and lock 

the trigger. 

In this case, the trigger will not release and turn off the 

blower. Turn off the cruise control by pressing the lever fully forward 

to stop the motor of the blower.

BLOWER SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS

Wear  a  face  filter  mask  in  dusty  conditions  to  reduce  the  risk  of 

injury associated with the inhalation of dust.
Slightly dampen surfaces in dusty conditions.
Do not point the blower nozzle in the direction of people or pets.
Never place objects inside the blower tubes.
Do not operate the product near open windows.
Use the full blower nozzle extension so that the air stream can work 

close to the ground and perform effectively.
Do not place blower on top of or near loose debris. Debris can be 

sucked into the intake vent, resulting in possible damage to the 

product.

ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS

 

WARNING! 

To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and 

product  damage  due  to  a  short  circuit,  never  immerse  your 

tool,  battery  pack  or  charger  in  fluid  or  allow  a  fluid  to  flow 

inside them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater, 

certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach-containing 

products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

Stop the product, remove the battery pack, and allow it to cool 

before storing or transporting.

Clean all foreign materials from the product. Store the product in a 

cool, dry, and well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. 

Keep away from corrosive agents, such as garden chemicals and 

de-icing salts. Do not store outdoors.
For transportation in vehicles, secure the product against movement 

or falling to prevent injury to persons or damage to the product.

TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES

Transport the battery pack in accordance with local and national 

provisions and regulations.
Follow all special requirements on packaging and labelling when 

transporting batteries by a third party. Ensure that no batteries can 

come in contact with other batteries or conductive materials while 

in transport by protecting exposed connectors with insulating, non-

conductive caps or tape. Do not transport batteries that are cracked 

or leaking. Check with the forwarding company for further advice.
