BLOWER OPERATION

IMPORTANT: This blower is for house-
hold use only.
WARNING: Read and under-
stand this owner's manual before
operating blower. Make certain
you read and understand all
Safety Warnings. Improper use of
this blower can result in severe
injury or death from fi re, electric
shock, or body contact with mov-
ing parts.
WARNING: To reduce the
risk of electric shock, use
only with an extension cord
intended for outdoor use,
such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-
A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A,
SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.

EXTENSION CORDS

Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. Inspect extension cords periodi-
cally and replace if damaged. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your blower will
draw. An undersized extension cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss
of power and overheating.
The table below shows the correct size exten-
sion cord to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next larger gauge cord. The smaller the gauge
number, the larger the cord. To reduce the
risk of disconnection of blower from the
extension cord during operation, use the cord
hitch described in this manual.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
blower has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other) and will require the use
of a polarized extension cord. The blower
plug will fi t into a polarized extension cord
only one way. If the plug does not fi t fully
into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the
plug still does not fi t, obtain a correct polar-
ized extension cord. A polarized extension
cord will require the use of a polarized wall
outlet. This plug will fi t into the polarized
wall outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fi t fully into the wall outlet, reverse the
plug. If the plug still does not fi t, contact
a qualifi ed electrician to install the proper
wall outlet. Do not change the blower plug,
extension cord receptacle, or extension cord
plug in any way.
Inspect cord often. Replace if damaged.
Connecting Extension Cord
WARNING: Fully seat the ex-
tension cord on the inlet plug of
blower. Failure to do so could lead
to overheating of blower. This
could cause a fi re that results in
personal injury to you or others.
The blower has a built-in extension cord
retainer. This cord hitch prevents accidental
disconnection of the power cord during use.
The cord hitch is molded into the lower rear
of the blower housing.
1.
Plug extension cord into the inlet plug
of appliance (See Figure 3).
2. Create a loop in the extension cord and
insert the loop through the cord slot of
the blower housing (see Figure 4).
3.
Pull the loop tight around the molded
cord hitch (see Figure 5).
