• Carefully inspect your appliance before use and follow all label and marking instructions.
• Keep all parts of your body away from any moving parts and all hot surfaces of the unit.
• Do not put any object into the tool’s openings. Do not use the tool with any opening blocked; keep openings free of dust, lint, hair, or any other object that may reduce air flow.
• Check the work area before each use. Remove all objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string, which can be thrown or become entangled in the machine.

• Always grasp the handle when operating the unit, only operate the machine in its intended orientation.

Specific Safety Rules For Blower

• The blower has been designed to clear light debris and leaves from hard surfaces – not for clearing grassed areas.
• When operating the unit, never point the blower nozzle in the direction of people or pets or in the direction of windows. Use extra caution when blowing debris near solid objects, such as trees, automobiles, and walls.
• Be sure to secure the unit when transporting it.
• Never douse or squirt the unit with water or any other liquid. Clean the unit after each use as described in the cleaning and storage section.

Electrical Safety

1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for this electric blower. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

2. Make sure that the mains voltage matches that listed on the unit’s rating label. Using the improper voltage can damage the motor and injure the user.

3. To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.
   Before use, check that the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
   WARNING Electric shock may cause SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. Heed these warnings:

   • Do not allow any part of the electric blower to make contact with water while it is in operation. If the appliance becomes wet while turned off, wipe dry before starting.
   • Use only a UL-, CSA-, or ETL-rated extension cord for outdoor, all-weather use.
   • Do not use an extension cord over 100 ft (30 m).
   • Do not touch the appliance or its plug with wet hands or while standing in water. Wearing rubber boots offers some protection.

4. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (i.e. one blade is wider than the other). Use this appliance only with a polarized UL-, CSA-, or ETL-listed extension cord recommended for outdoor, all-weather use.
   The appliance plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the appliance 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. The extension cord plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only 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 modify the appliance plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.

5. To prevent the extension cord from disconnecting from the unit during operation, always use the on-board cord retainer (Fig. A).

6. Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord. Do not abuse the cord. Never pull the blower by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

Double-Insulated Appliances
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be performed only by qualified service personnel at an authorized All Season Power dealer. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated appliance is marked with the words “Double Insulation” or “Double Insulated.” The symbol (square within a square) may also be marked on the appliance.

DOUBLE-INSULATED: GROUNDING NOT REQUIRED. WHEN SERVICING, USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.
This electric blower is double-insulated, eliminating the need for a separate grounding system. Use only identical replacement parts. Read the instructions before servicing double-insulated appliances. Use this blower only as described in this manual.
