WARNING
WARNING
■ Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before
blowing.
■ In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces.
■ Conserve water by using power blowers instead of
hoses for many lawn and garden applications,
including areas such as gutters, screens, patios,
grills, porches, and gardens.
AIR VENTS
Never cover air vents. Keep them free from obstructions
and debris. They must always remain clear for proper
motor cooling.
To avoid serious personal injury, do not wear loose
fitting clothing or articles such as scarves, strings,
chains, ties, etc., that could get drawn into the air
vents. To make sure long hair does not get drawn into
the air vents, tie back long hair.
OPERATING AS A BlOWER
Hold the blower firmly. Sweep from side to side with the
nozzle several inches above the ground or floor. Slowly
advance the unit, keeping the accumulated pile of debris
in front of you. Most dry blowing operations are better
suited to low speeds, rather than high. High speed
blowing is a better way to move heavier items like large
debris or gravel.
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.
