c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Before use, examine
cord for damage. Replace cord if there
are signs of damage or ageing. Do not use
the product if the cord is damaged or worn.
Immediately disconnect from the mains
electricity supply if the cord is cut, or the
insulation is damaged. Do not touch the
electric cord until the electrical supply has
been disconnected. Do not repair a cut or
damaged cord. Replace it with a new one.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
e) The electric cord must be uncoiled.
Coiled cord can overheat and reduce the
efficiency of the product. Always wind
cord carefully, avoiding kinks.
f) When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use fitted with a coupler according to
IEC 60320-2-3. Use of a cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
g) If operating a power tool in a damp
l ocation is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply
with a tripping current of not more than
30 mA. Even with a RCD installed,
100% safety cannot be guaranteed and
safe working practices must be followed
at all times. Check your RCD every time
you use your product. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool while you are
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection and hearing
protection. To prevent dust irritation,
the use of a dust mask is recommended.
Protective equipment such as eye protection,
hearing protection, dust mask, nonskid safety
shoes, or hard hat used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off position before connecting

to power source, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energising power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
d) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. On slopes, be extra
careful and wear non-slip footwear. Do not
walk backwards while operating your product.
Walk, never run. Do not use ladders while
operating the product. This enables better con-
trol of the power tool in unexpected situations.
e) Dress properly. Always wear suitable
clothing, gloves, and stout shoes.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Only use the product in the manner and for
the functions described in these instructions.
Always direct the cord to the rear, away from
the product. Do not force the power tool. Use
the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Always make sure your product is in a safe
operating condition before use. Do not use
the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Know how to stop the product
quickly in an emergency. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) The impeller continues to rotate after
your product has been switched off.
The motor must be stopped and the impeller
blade no longer turning to avoid serious injury
from the rotating blades.
d) Disconnect the plug from the power source:
– before removing or replacing fully assembled
debris bag;
– before leaving the product unattended for any
period;
– before clearing a blockage;
– before checking, cleaning or working on the
appliance;
– if the product starts to vibrate abnormally.
Check immediately. Excessive vibration can
cause injury.
– before passing to another person.
e) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
f) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, breakage
