GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately.
• Avoid Dangerous Environment - Don’t use appliances in damp or wet locations. Don't use in rain.
• Wear heavy long pants, long sleeves, boots, and gloves. Avoid loose garments or jewelry that
could get caught in moving parts of the machine or its motor.
• 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.
• Do not charge sweeper battery in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of electric shock.
• 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 sweeper nozzle in the direction of people or pets.
• Never run the unit without the proper equipment attached. Always ensure the sweeper tubes
are installed.
• Store Idle Appliances Indoors - When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in dry,
and high or locked-up place - out of reach of children.
• Do not store outside or in vehicles.
• Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in
contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush
them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
• Do not incinerate this sweeper even if it is severely damaged. The battery can explode in a fire.
• Sweeper service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a sweeper, use only identical replacement parts. Following instructions in the
MAINTENANCE section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance
Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
• Never use any sweeper near fire or hot ashes. Use near fires or ashes can spread fires and
result in serious injury and/or property damage.
