SNOW BLOWER OVERLOAD PROTECTION
To prevent overload conditions, do not try to remove too much snow at one time. Slow
down your pace or decrease the width of the snow-clearing swath.
Your snow blower has built-in overload-sensing elements. When the snow blower
is overloaded, the motor will decrease the speed automatically and you will hear
the noise level of the motor decrease. In case of overload, slow down your pace or
narrow the clearing width, after which the motor speed will resume its normal setting
automatically. If this remedy does not solve the overload situation, the sensor will shut
off the motor automatically and the power indicator will flash orange. Remove the
battery pack(s) from the snow blower. Check to see if there is snow or ice stuck in the
auger and deck and use a clean-out tool to clear them out as necessary. Reinstall the
battery pack(s) and restart the snow blower.
BATTERY HIGH-TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
If the battery temperature exceeds 158°F (70°C) during operation, the temperature-
protection circuit will immediately shut off the snow blower to protect the battery packs
from overheating damage. The power indicator on the snow blower will be off and the
LED indicator on the battery pack will flash orange or shine red.
NOTE:
The LED indicator on following battery packs will flash orange lights when
overheated: BA1400, BA1400-FC, BA2800, BA2800-FC, BA4200, and BA4200-FC;
the LEDs on following battery packs will shine red lights when overheated: BA1400T,
BA1400T-FC, BA2240T, BA2240T-FC, BA2242T, BA2242T-FC, BA2800T, BA2800T-FC,
BA4200T, BA4200T-FC, BA5600T, BA5600T-FC, BA6720T, and BA6720T-FC.
Release the bail switch and wait until the overheated battery pack(s) cool down and the
light on the battery LED indicator turns green, then restart the snow blower.
To prevent shut off due to battery high-temperature protection, don’t try to use a single
battery to power the snow blower when the depth of the accumulated snow exceeds
3 inches (76 mm) or when the snow is very wet or icy. We recommend the use of two
batteries working simultaneously. This is helpful in attaining the peak power of the
snow blower.
After high-temperature protection has occurred, slow down your pace and narrow the
width of the snow-clearing swath to reduce the load on the battery.
OPERATING TIPS
DANGER:
Never use a snow blower on frozen lakes, rivers, or similar surfaces.
Death or serious injury could occur if the ice breaks.
DANGER:
Never use the snow blower on a rooftop or other unstable surface,
which can result in death or serious personal injury.
