READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT!
WARNING: To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by a qualified service technician.

WARNING: To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:

•  Know your power blower. Read the instruction manual carefully. Learn the blower’s applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this blower. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

•  Do not allow the blower 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.

• If the blower is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left
  outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center.

• Do not handle the charger, including charger plug, or charger terminals
  with wet hands.

•  Do not put any object into any openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep openings free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.

• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn into air vents.

• Secure long hair above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in moving
  parts.

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

• Do not charge the battery pack outdoors.

• Use only the charger supplied by the manufacturer to recharge.

• Do not leave blower unattended when the battery is inserted. Remove the battery when the blower is not in use and before servicing.

• Do not operate blowers in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Blowers create sparks that may ignite dust or fumes.

• Use the battery-operated blower only with a specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.

• Use only with battery packs and chargers listed below.

TK – 45CQU

•  Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power blower. Do not use the blower while tired, upset, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating blowers may result in serious personal injury.

• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure that the switch is in the locked or off position before inserting the battery pack. Carrying blowers with your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a blower with the switch on invites accidents.

• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

• Do not use on a ladder, rooftop, tree, or other unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better control of the blower in unexpected situations.
  Always take care of your feet, children, or pets around you when removing the battery pack from blower. Serious injury could result if the battery pack falls. NEVER remove the battery pack when in a high position.

• Do not use the blower if switch does not turn it on or off. A blower that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

• Disconnect the battery pack from the blower before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the blower. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the blower accidentally.

• Turn off all controls before removing the battery.
  DO NOT attempt to clear clogs from the unit without first removing the battery.

• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the blower’s operation. If damaged, have the blower serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained blowers.

• Keep the blower and its handle dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any strong solvents to clean your blower. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.

• Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday glasses have only impact-resistant lenses. They are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of eye injury.

• Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 along with hearing protection when operating this equipment.

• Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

• Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

• Battery-powered blowers do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery powered blower or when changing accessories. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.

• Wear heavy long pants, long sleeves and boots. Avoid loose garments or jewelry that could get caught in moving parts of the machine or its motor.

• 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 footing on slippery surfaces.

•  Do not incinerate the appliance even if it is severely damaged. The batteries
  can explode in a fire.

• Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a  pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.

• Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can result in
  loss of balance.

• Check the work area before each use. Remove all objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string which can be thrown by or become entangled in the machine.

•  Do not point the blower tube in the direction of people or pets.

•  Never run the unit without the proper equipment attached. Always ensure that the blower tube is installed.

•  When not in use, the blower should be stored indoors in a dry, secure place out of the reach of children.

•  Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 50 ft. away.

•  Blower service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.

• When servicing a blower, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.

•  Never use the blower near fires or hot ashes. Use near fires or ashes can spread fires and result in serious injury and/or property damage.

•  Never use blower to spread chemicals, fertilizers, or any other toxic substances. Spreading these substances could result in serious injury to the operator or bystanders.

• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature.
  Exposure to fire or temperature above 212 °F (100°C) may cause explosion.

• Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you loan this tool to someone else, also loan these instructions to them to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.
