IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
WARNING!
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING THIS BLOWER/VACUUM. To reduce
the risk of electric shock, fire and/or serious personal
injury.
 Know your blower/vacuum. Read operator's manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific potential hazards related to this
blower/vacuum. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
 Do not permit children to use blower/vacuum. It is
not a toy. Close attention is necessary when used near
children.
 Use only accessories that are recommended by the
manufacturer for your model described in this manual.
Accessories that may be suitable for one blower/vacuum
may create a risk of injury when used on another blower/
vacuum. Use only as described in this manual.
 Do not handle charger, including charger plug, and
charger terminals with wet hands.
 Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with
any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and
anything that may reduce air flow.
 Do not charge the unit outdoors.
 Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body
away from openings and moving parts.
 Turn off all controls before removing battery.
 Use extra care when cleaning on stairs or steps.
 Do not operate blower/vacuums in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust. Blower/vacuums create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
 Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
 Keep bystanders, children, and visitors at least 50 ft.
away while operating a blower/vacuum. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
 A battery operated blower/vacuum with integral bat-
teries or a separate battery pack must be recharged
only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger
that may be suitable for one type of battery may create
a risk of fire when used with another battery.
 Use battery operated blower/vacuum only with spe-
cifically designated battery pack. Use of any other
batteries may create a risk of fire.
 Use this product only with batteries and chargers listed
in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation
supplement 987000-432.
 Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug,
which could cause shorting and electric shock. If
damaged, have the charger replaced by an authorized
service center.
 If appliance is not working as it should, has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into
water, return it to a service center.
 Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a blower/vacuum. Do
not use blower/vacuum while tired, upset, or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A mo-
ment of inattention while operating blower/vacuums may
result in serious personal injury.
 Secure long hair above shoulder level to prevent en-
tanglement in moving parts.
 Avoid accidental starting. Be sure dial is in the off
position before inserting battery pack.
 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
 Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn
into air vents.
 Do not use on a ladder, rooftop, tree, or other unstable
support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better
control of the blower/vacuum in unexpected situations.
 Do not use blower/vacuum if dial does not turn it on
or off. A blower/vacuum that cannot be controlled with
the dial is dangerous and must be repaired.
 Disconnect battery pack from blower/vacuum or place
the dial in the off position before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing the blower/
vacuum. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the blower/vacuum accidentally.
 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make
a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting
the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns,
or a fire.
 Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may
affect the blower/vacuum's operation. If damaged,
have the blower/vacuum serviced before using. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained blower/
vacuums.
