4. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger fi rmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use,
and then keep it.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries,
etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and
batteries that have not been used for an extended period
is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when
using them the fi rst and second time. This is a temporary
phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging
will be restored by recharging the batteries 2–3 times.
How to make the batteries perform longer.
(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely
exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes
weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If
you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric
current, the battery may be damaged and its life will
become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after
use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after
use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and
the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and
recharge it after it has cooled for a while.
CAUTION
○ If the battery is charged while it is heated because
it has been left for a long time in a location subject to
direct sunlight or because the battery has just been
used, the charge indicator lamp of the charger lights
for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (off for
0.3 seconds). In such a case, fi rst let the battery cool,
then start charging.
○ When the charge indicator lamp fl ickers (at 0.2-second
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger's battery connector. If there are no foreign
objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service
Center.
○ Since the built-in micro computer takes about
3 seconds to confi rm that the battery being charged with
UC18YSL3 is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds
before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery
is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be
properly charged.

Selecting accessories
*1 Before conducting a blowing operation, blow out air in a
location where there is nobody nearby to make sure the
tool is free of any residue.
*2 Turn the nozzle until a click is heard.
*3 During operation, the unit can generate static electricity
which may cause the motor to stop.
This is a protective feature and not a malfunction. Draw
the switch in once again to restart the motor.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING
Be sure to turned off the switch and remove the battery
before maintenance and inspection.
1. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that
they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be
loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could
result in serious hazard.
2. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the power
tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
3. Inspection of terminals (tool and battery)
Check to make sure that swarf and dust have not
collected on the terminals.
On occasion check prior, during and after operation.
CAUTION
Remove any swarf or dust which may have collected on
the terminals.
Failure to do so may result in malfunction.
4. Cleaning on the outside
When the cordless blower is stained, wipe with a
soft dry cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water.
Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, for
they melt plastics.
If the nose grill is blocked with debris, the blower will
work less effi ciently.
Clean it gently when necessary with a soft brush.
5. Storage
Store the cordless blower and the battery in a place in
which the temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach
of children.
NOTE
Storing lithium-ion batteries.
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully
Page
charged before storing them.
Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with
2
a low charge may result in performance deterioration,
signifi cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering
2
the batteries incapable of holding a charge.
However, signifi cantly reduced battery usage time may
2
be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the
2
batteries two to fi ve times.
If the battery usage time is extremely short despite
3
repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead
3
and purchase new batteries.
