IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury.
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE BLOWER.
• Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids, such as gasoline, or use in areas where
they may be present.
• To reduce the risk of electric shocks, this tool has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The plug will only fit into a polarized
extension cord one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If
the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord will
require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will only fit into the polarized wall outlet one
way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not change the equipment plug,
extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.
• This appliance is provided with double insulation. Use only identical replacement parts. See
instructions for Servicing of Double-Insulated Appliances.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.

risk of electric shock.
