IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in
contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice or
vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek
immediate medical attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
• Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire
or temperature above 265°F may cause explosion.
• For best results, your battery tool should be charged in a location where the temperature is
more than 42.8°F but less than 104°F. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, do not
store outside or in vehicles.
• Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.
• Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the battery pack (as applicable) except as
indicated in the instructions for use and care.
• Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may
use this power tool. If you loan someone this power tool, loan them these instructions also.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance outside of
the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside of the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
W A R N I N G
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk of exposure to these chemicals varies depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area, and work
with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
CHILD SAFETY
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not aware of the presence of children.
• Keep children out of the working area and under the watchful care of a responsible adult.
• Do not allow children under the age of 14 to operate this blower. Children who are 14
years of age and older must read and understand the operating instructions and safety
rules in this manual and must be trained and supervised by a parent.
• Stay alert, and turn the blower off if a child or any other person enters the working area.
• Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, doorways, shrubs, trees, or other
objects that may obscure your view of a child who may run into the path of the blower.
