WARNING!

 When using electric yard tools, basic 

safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the 

risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury, including the 

following:

1.  Keep work area clean and well-lit – Cluttered, dark 

areas invite accidents. 

2.  Replacement parts – When servicing this unit, use only 

identical replacement parts. Replace or repair damaged 

cords immediately.

3.  Disconnect the tool – Disconnect the blower vac from 

the power supply when it is not in use, before servicing 

it, when changing accessories and when performing any 

other maintenance task.

4  Avoid dangerous environments – Do not use the blower 

vac in rain, damp or wet locations. Do not operate the 

blower vac in gaseous or explosive atmospheres or use 

the blower vac to pick up flammable or combustible 

liquids. Motors in these tools normally spark, and the 

sparks might ignite fumes.

5.  Keep children, bystanders and pets away – All 

spectators, including pets, should be kept a safe distance 

away from the work area.

6.  Use the right tool – 

Do not use the tool for any job except 

that for which it is intended.

7.  Extension cords – To prevent electric shock, use only 

with an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

8.  Do not abuse the cord – Never carry the blower vac 

by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from the 

receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, and sharp 

edges. 

9.  Avoid accidental starting – Do not carry the blower vac 

with your finger on the switch. Make sure the switch is off 

before plugging in the unit.

m

DANGER!

 

Do not manually place objects into the 

vacuum tube while operating the unit as this can seriously 

damage the unit and/or harm the operator. Keep both hands 

on the handles while the power is on.
DO NOT ATTEMPT to remove material or hold material to be 

vacuumed when the blower vac is on. Make sure the blower 

vac is off when clearing jammed material from the vacuum 

tube. Do not pick up the blower vac by the tube or attempt to 

carry the unit by the tube. 

m

CAUTION!

 Moving parts will continue to run for 

several seconds after turning off the machine.

10. Moving parts – Keep hands and feet away from moving 

parts. Keep guards in place and in proper working order.

11. Do not force the tool – It will perform better with less 

likelihood of personal or mechanical injury if it is used at 

the rate for which it was designed.
