1.
To reduce the risk of injury and damage, never immerse
your battery pack(s) or charger in liquid or allow any liquid
to flow inside these components.
2.
Clean out dust and debris from charger vents and
electrical contacts by blowing with compressed air.
3.
Use only mild soap on a damp cloth to clean the battery
pack and charger, keeping away from all electrical
contacts. Certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful
to plastics and other insulated parts. Some of these
include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner,
chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household
detergents containing ammonia. Never use flammable
or combustible solvents around battery packs, battery
chargers or tools.
4.
The iON100V-RCH lithium-ion battery charger (sold
separately) has no serviceable parts.
Replacing Scraper Bar
IMPORTANT!
Damage to auger housing will result if the
scraper bar wears down too far.
To replace scraper bar:
1.
Position unit on a hard, flat, smooth level surface.
2.
Detach the worn scraper bar from the snow blower by
removing the 4 sets of nuts, washers and bolts that hold it
in place (Fig. 21).
3.
Install the new scraper bar and fasten it securely to the
snow blower with the original sets of nuts, washers and
bolts.
Replacing Auger Blades
During use, the auger blades will wear down over time, which
will eventually cause incomplete cleaning. If the unit cannot
plow snow completely and leaves snow on ground, consider
changing the auger blades.
m
WARNING!
Replacing the auger blades involves close
operation with the auger and the blades. To avoid injury
caused by unintentional starting, make sure the battery pack(s)
are not inserted before proceeding with the operation, and
wear heavy duty gloves during operation.
