at yourself, other people, or animals. Before blowing, check the work area and remove any
objects that may cause danger. Please note that ejected particles can bounce off obstacles
and hit the operator. When operating the machine, wear personal protective equipment such
as work clothing with long legs and sleeves as well as protective gloves. Wear eye protection
and a face mask. Moreover, use hearing protection. Wear solid footwear with full uppers and
non-slip soles. Do not obstruct the vent holes and make sure they are clear. Obstructed or
clogged ventilation openings may cause the machine to overheat. This can lead to damage
to the machine and cause fi re or electrocution. If you notice any damage to any part of the
machine, you must discontinue using it. In this case, hand the machine over to an author-
ised service centre or replace this part by yourself, provided the user's manual permits this.
Turn off the machine and disconnect the battery before performing any activities related to
replacing parts, cleaning, or adjustment. Turn off the machine and disconnect the battery
before replacing the accessories. The machine must not be used by children or persons with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, as
well as those who fail to read this manual. Local regulations may restrict the operator's age.
Children should not play with the machine. Children left unattended should not be allowed
to perform the cleaning and maintenance of the machine. Hold the machine by the handle.
Make sure that air inlet and outlet are not obstructed when holding the product. The air inlet
must not be too close to the ground to prevent dirt from being sucked into the machine. Keep
a proper standing position during work so that you can always maintain balance. When work-
ing on a slope, move across the slope. Never run while working, always walk. Always use
the machine when it is fully assembled. Never use the product without the attached nozzle.
Do not touch dangerous moving parts until the machine has been disconnected from the
power supply by disconnecting the battery and the dangerous moving parts have come to a
complete stop. Before connecting, ensure that the battery fi ts into the machine socket and
that its voltage rating is the same as stated on the machine's rating plate. Always connect
the batteries to the machine after making sure that the power switch is in the off position.
Check the machine's condition each time before you start it, or after dropping it, or when the
blower hits an object. If you notice any damage, such as a cracked housing, you must not
use the machine until the damage has been remedied. If, during operation, a malfunction or
accident occurs, turn off the machine fi rst, disconnect the batteries and then administer aid
to injured persons. Rectify the cause of the malfunction or accident. Check the condition of
the machine for damage before resuming operation. Always disconnect the power supply
by disconnecting the batteries: when the user leaves the machine; before removing the jam;
before inspecting, cleaning, or works on the machine; after the machine has hit an object to
check for damage; if the machine starts to vibrate abnormally, for an immediate check. If the
machine starts to vibrate excessively after start-up or during operation, this means that the
machine is not operating correctly. In this case, turn the machine off immediately, disconnect
the batteries and check it. Check the nozzle for any obstructions in the air inlet and outlet.
Once the obstruction has been removed, reassemble the machine, connect it to the power
source, and restart it. If excessive vibration persists, immediately turn the machine off with
the power switch, disconnect the batteries and hand it over to an authorised service centre.
Although precautions have been taken during the machine's engineering and design and
