SAFETY INFORMATION
• Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the appliance. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
• Use the battery-operated blower only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of
any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
• Use only with battery packs and chargers listed below.
BATTERY PACK
KB 240-03; KB 440-03; KB 640-03
• 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 266°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
• 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.
• 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 except as
indicated in the instructions for use and care.
• Do not operate blowers in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Blowers create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power
blower. Do not use the blower while tired, upset, or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating blowers may result in
serious personal injury.
• Do not use on a ladder, rooftop, tree, or other unstable support. Stable footing on a
solid surface enables better control of the blower in unexpected situations.
• Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can result in loss of
balance.
• Always take care of your feet, children, or pets around you when removing the battery
pack from blower. NEVER remove the battery pack when in a high position. Serious
injury could result if the battery pack falls.
• Do not use the blower if switch does not turn it on or off. A blower that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the blower's operation. If damaged, have the blower
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained blowers.
• Keep the blower and its handle dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Always use
a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based
products, or any strong solvents to clean your blower. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1 along with hearing protection when operating this equipment.
Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are NOT safety glasses.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of eye injury.
