Safety instructions for battery
operated blowers
WARNING!
Read and follow all safety instructions and
other instructions in this manual.
Failure to observe the warnings and instruc-
tions may cause an electric shock, fire and/or
serious injuries. Keep this manual in a safe
place for subsequent use.
Ensure that no persons in the vicinity are
injured by foreign particles that are swept
up into the air.
Keep fingers away from the openings of
the power tool during use. Only operate the
blower with the nozzle attached.
The rotating blower can cause injuries.
Do not air sweep substances that are
hazardous to health, such as beechwood
dust or oak dust, stone dust, asbestos.
These substances have been found to be
carcinogenic.
Any absorption of liquid increases the
risk of electric shock.
Do not expose the device to rain or wet
conditions. The ingress of water in the
motor increases the risk of electric shock.
Ensure that the workplace is well
ventilated.
Wear additional personal protective
equipment such as safety goggles and
respirator (or breathing protection).
Wearing suitable protective equipment
for the conditions reduces any exposure
to hazardous substances.
Safety instructions for handling
batteries
Do not open the battery. Short-circuiting
hazard!
Protect the battery against heat,
including prolonged sunshine, fire, water
and moisture. Explosion hazard!
A damaged or incorrectly used battery may
result in the emission of fumes.
Ensure a supply of fresh air and consult
a doctor in the event of any physical
complications. The fumes may irritate the
respiratory tracts.
Liquid may leak out of the battery if the
battery is incorrectly used. Avoid contact
with such liquid. If contact accidentally
occurs, rinse with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, seek medical attention.
Liquid discharged from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.
Use FLEX rechargeable batteries only in
connection with FLEX tools and FLEX
accessories. Only in this way is the
rechargeable battery protected against
dangerous overloads.
Recharge batteries only with chargers
recommended by the manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery may create a fire hazard when used
with another battery.
The battery may be damaged by pointed
objects such as e.g. nails or screwdrivers or
by external application of force. This may
give rise to an internal short circuit, causing
the battery to burn, smoke, explode or
overheat.
Noise and vibration
The noise and vibration values have been
determined in accordance with EN 15503.
The A evaluated noise level of the power
tool is typically:
– Sound pressure level:
– Sound power level:
– Uncertainty K:
Total vibration value:
– Emission value a
– Uncertainty K:
CAUTION!
The indicated measurements refer to new
power tools. Daily use causes the noise
and vibration values to change.
NOTE
The vibration emission level given in this
information sheet has been measured
in accordance with a standardised test
given in EN 15503 and may be used to
compare one tool with another. It may be
used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure. The declared vibration emission
level represents the main applications of the
tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories
or poorly maintained, the vibration emission
may differ. This may significantly increase
the exposure level over the total working
75 dB(A);
95 dB(A);
3 dB.
