BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

  • Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitablec for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
  • Use the product only with specifically designated battery packs. The use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
  • When the 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 pack terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
  • Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery pack; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery pack may cause irritation or burns.
  • Do not use a battery pack or product that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion, or risk of injury.
  • Do not expose a battery pack or the product to fire or excessive temperatures. Exposure to fire or excessive temperature above 130°C may cause explosion.
  • Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or the product outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

OPERATION

  • Operate the product only at reasonable hours—not early in the morning or late at night when people might be disturbed.
  • Never operate the product in an explosive atmosphere.
  • Avoid using the product in bad weather conditions, especially when there is a risk of lightning.
  • Keep bystanders, children, and pets 15 m away from the area of operation. Turn off the product if anyone enters the area.
  • Do not operate the product in poor lighting. The operator requires a clear view of the work area to identify potential hazards.
  • Operating similar products nearby increases both the risk of hearing injury and the potential for other persons to enter your working area.
  • Always be sure of your footing on slopes. Walk, never run.
  • Keep proper footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can result in loss of balance.
  • Never use the product with defective guards or shields, or without safety devices in place.
  • To reduce the risk of injury associated with contacting rotating parts, always turn off the product and remove the battery pack. Make sure that all moving parts have come to a complete stop:
    • before leaving the product unattended
    • before clearing blockages
    • before checking, cleaning, or working on the product
    • before inspecting the product after striking a foreign object
    • whenever the product starts to vibrate abnormally (inspect immediately)
  • Immediately turn off the product and remove the battery pack in the event of accident or breakdown. Do not operate the product again until it has been fully checked by an authorised service centre.
  • Do not modify the product in any way or use parts and accessories that are not recommended by the manufacturer.
  • If the product is dropped, suffers heavy impact, or begins to vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the product and inspect for damage or identify the cause of the vibration. Any damage should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised centre.

WARNING! The product may be suppliedwith a harness. Carefully adjust the harness to comfortably help you in supporting the weight of the product.
Identify the quick-release mechanism and practice using it before you start using the product. Its correct use may prevent serious injury in the case of an emergency. Never wear additional clothing over the harness or otherwise restrict access to the quick-release mechanism.

BLOWER SAFETY WARNINGS

  • Wear a face filter mask in dusty conditions to reduce the risk of injury associated with the inhalation of dust.
  • Slightly dampen surfaces in dusty conditions.
  • Do not use the product near open windows.
  • Use the full blower nozzle extension so that the air stream can work close to the ground and perform effectively.
  • Do not point the blower nozzle in the direction of people or pets.
  • Never place objects inside the blower tubes.
  • Do not place the product on top of or near loose debris. Debris can be sucked into the intake vent, resulting in possible damage to the product.

ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS

To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse the product, battery pack, or charger in fluid or allow fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach-containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

  • Turn off the product, remove the battery pack, and allow both to cool down before storing or transporting.
  • Remove all foreign materials from the product. Store the product in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. Keep the product away from corrosive agents, such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts. Do not store the product outdoors.
  • For transportation in a vehicle, secure the product against movement or falling to prevent injury to persons or damage to the product.

TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Transport the battery pack in accordance with local and national provisions and regulations. Follow all special requirements on packaging and labelling when transporting batteries by a third party. Ensure that no batteries can come in contact with other batteries or conductive materials while in transport by protecting exposed connectors with insulating, non-conductive caps or tape. Do not transport battery packs that are cracked or leaking. Check with the forwarding company for further advice.

MAINTENANCE

  • Use only original manufacturer’s replacement parts, accessories, and attachments. Failure to do so can cause possible injury, can contribute to poor performance, and may void your warranty.
  • Servicing requires extreme care and knowledge and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. Have the product serviced by an authorised service centre only.

WARNING! The declared vibration total values and the declared noise emission values given in this instruction manual have been measured in accordance with a standardised test and may be used to compare one tool with another. They may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration and noise emission values represent the main applications of the tool. However, if the tool is used for different applications, used with different accessories, or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may differ. These conditions may significantly increase the exposure levels over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should take into account the times when the tool is turned off or when it is running idle. These conditions may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration and noise, such as maintaining the tool and the accessories, keeping the hands warm (in case of vibration), and organising work patterns.
