TO REDUCE RISK OF INJURY:
Before any use, be sure everyone using this tool
reads and understands all safety instructions and
other information contained in this manual.
CAUTION: Wear appropriate personal hearing
protection during use. Under some conditions
and duration of use, noise from this product may
contribute to hearing loss.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY - All visitors, children and pets should stay
at a safe distance from the work area.
DRESS PROPERLY – Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry. They
can be caught in moving parts. Wear protective hair covering to
contain long hair. Use of rubber gloves and substantial footwear is
recommended when working outdoors.
USE SAFETY GLASSES –Wear safety glasses with side shields or
goggles that are marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 standard when
operating this product. Use face or dust mask if operation is dusty.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) protection
should be provided on the circuit (s) or outlet (s) to be used for the
blower. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection and
may be used.
USE RIGHT EQUIPMENT – Do not use equipment for any job except
that for which it is intended.
DOUBLE INSULATION – Double Insulation is a concept in safety
in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual
three-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated
from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.
Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
NOTE: The double insulated system is intended to protect the user
from shock resulting from a break in the tool's internal insulation.
Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical shock.
POLARIZED PLUGS-To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
product has a polarized plug. Polarized connections will fit together
only one way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the extension
cord has large and small blade slot widths. If the plug does not fit fully
into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, obtain a
suitable extension cord. If the extension cord does not fit fully into
the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not change the plug on the tool or the extension cord in any way.
EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord be sure it is heavy enough
to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized extension
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier
the cord.

than one extension cord in
a knot as shown to prevent them from
becoming disconnected during use.

reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Use outdoor extension cords marked SW-A, SOW-A,
STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOWA. These cords are
rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
Before each use check the electrical cord for wear or damage. Do
not use the blower if the cord is damaged or worn.
Never allow children to use the blower.
Never allow people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the

DISCONNECT BLOWER from the power supply when not in use or
when servicing or cleaning. Do not leave unattended.
AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS – Don't use this tool in the
rain, or in damp or wet locations. Do not operate the tool in gaseous
or explosive atmospheres. Motors in these tools normally spark and
might ignite fumes.
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING – Don't carry Blower with
finger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
DON'T ABUSE CORD – Never carry the blower by the cord or yank
the cord to disconnect from the receptacle. Keep the cord away from
heat, oil, and sharp edges.
DON'T FORCE BLOWER – It will do the job better and with less
likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for which it was designed.
STAY ALERT – Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do
not operate blower when you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medications.
If the cord becomes damaged during use, disconnect the cord from
the supply immediately. DO NOT TOUCH THE CORD BEFORE
DISCONNECTING THE SUPPLY.
STORE IDLE BLOWER INDOORS – When not in use, Blower should
be stored indoors in a dry place, out of reach of children.
MAINTAIN BLOWER WITH CARE – Keep blower tube clear and
clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Inspect
extension cord periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Always direct the cord to the rear and away from the blower.
The operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or their property.
