Clearing a Clogged Rotor Housing
Hand contact with the rotating rotor blades inside the rotor
housing is the most common cause of injury associated
with cordless snow shovels. Never use your hands to clear a
clogged rotor housing.
To clear the rotor housing:
• Shut the motor off and remove the battery.
• Wait 10 seconds to be sure the rotor blades have come to a
complete stop.
• Always use a clean-out tool, not your hands, to free the
rotating blades.
Maintenance and Storage
• Check all fasteners at frequent intervals for proper tightness
to ensure that the equipment is in safe working condition.
• Always refer to the operator's manual for important details,
such as how to properly store your cordless snow shovel
for an extended period of time.
• Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels as needed.
• Run the machine a few minutes after throwing snow to
prevent the rotor blades from freezing.

Safety Instructions
NOTE: This unit is a tool only. The battery and the charger are
not included. They must be purchased separately.
Model 24V-SS11-CT is compatible with the iON+ 24V System
batteries and chargers. See page 14 for more information.
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be
exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only
be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
