WARNING
before adjusting, inspecting, or cleaning the blower.
Cleaning
•
Remove the battery pack.
•
Brush or blow dust and debris out of the air vents using compressed air or a vacuum. Keep
the air vents free of obstructions, sawdust, and wood chips. Do not spray, wash, or immerse the
air vents in water.
•
Wipe off the housing and the plastic components using a moist, soft cloth. Do not use strong
solvents or detergents on the plastic housing or plastic components. Certain household cleaners
may cause damage, and may cause a shock hazard.
Storing the blower
MAINTENANCE
Clean the blower thoroughly before storing. Store the blower in a dry, well-ventilated place that
is inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals and
deicing salts.
• Store and charge your batteries in a cool area. Temperatures above or below normal room
temperature will shorten battery pack life.
• Once the light on the charger turns solid green, remove the battery from the charger and
disconnect the charger from the outlet.
• Do not store the battery pack on the tool.
• Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Wait for battery pack to cool and fully
charge immediately.
• All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature, the quicker they lose
their charge. If you store your unit for long periods of time without using it, recharge the
batteries every month or two. This practice will prolong battery pack life.
