W A R N I N G
Read and understand all instructions before using this product. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury. When using an electrical
appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. BEFORE USING

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
• Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer's recommended attachments.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all body parts away from openings and moving

• Store indoors. Do not expose to rain or water. Avoid direct sunshine.
2. WHEN USING THIS 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 shock, the batttery charger 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.
• Never allow children to operate the equipment. Never allow adults to operate the equipment
without proper instruction.
• Wear eye protection that is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 when operating this
product.
• Do not handle charger, including charger plug, and charger terminals with wet hands.
• Do not charge the unit outdoors.
• Wear heavy long pants, boots, and gloves. Avoid loose garments or jewelry that could get
caught in moving parts of the machine or its motor.
• Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will work more
efficiently and safely when it is used at the rate that it was designed to work at.
• Do not incinerate the appliance even if it is severely damaged. The batteries can explode in
a fire.
• Do not leave appliance when plugged in/before removing the battery.
• Do not operate the equipment while barefoot or when wearing sandals or similar
lightweight footwear. Wear protective footwear that will protect your feet and improve your
