Always remove battery pack from your tool when you are
assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning, or when
not in use. Removing battery pack will prevent accidental
starting that could cause serious personal injury.

depress to release the battery pack from the blower.
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Therefore,
switch should always be in the OFF position when not in

ing, which could result in serious injury.
