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.

INTENDED USE

The cordless blower is intended only for outdoor use in dry and well- illuminated conditions.
The product is not intended to be used by children or persons with reduced physical, mental, or sensory capabilities.
The product is designed for blowing light debris, such as leaves, grass, and other garden refuse.

GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WARNING! Never allow children or people who are unfamiliar with these instructions to use the product. Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator.
TRAINING

• Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the controls and the correct use of the product.
• Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their property.
• Do not use the product while tired, ill, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.

PREPARATION

• Some regions have regulations that restrict the use of the product to some operations. Check with your local authority for advice.

• Wear hearing protection at all times while operating the product. The product is noisy, and permanent hearing injury may result if precautions to limit your exposure, reduce noise, and wear hearing protection are not strictly adhered to.

• Wear full eye protection at all times while operating the product.
  The manufacturer strongly suggests a full face mask or fully enclosed goggles. Normal spectacles or sunglasses are not adequate protection. Objects can be thrown at high speed by the powerful air jet at any time and may rebound from hard surfaces toward the operator.

• While operating the product, always wear substantial footwear and long trousers. Do not operate the product while barefoot or wearing open sandals. Avoid wearing loose-fitting clothing or clothes with hanging cords or ties.

• Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery that can be drawn into the air inlet. Secure long hair so that it is above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in moving parts.

• Before each use, ensure that all controls and safety devices function correctly. Do not use the product if the off switch does not turn off the product.

• Operate the product in the recommended position and only on a firm and level surface.

• Do not operate the product on a paved or gravel surface where ejected material could cause injury.

• Before each use, always inspect the housing for damage. Ensure that guards and handles are in place and properly secured.
  Replace worn or damaged components in sets to preserve balance. Replace damaged or unreadable labels.

• Never operate the product while people, especially children, or pets are nearby.

• Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris.

• Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.

• Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wires, or string that can be blown a considerable distance by high velocity air.

• Injuries may be caused or aggravated by prolonged use of the product. When using the product for prolonged periods, ensure to take regular breaks.

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer.
  A charger that is suitable 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 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 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 product outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery pack 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 tools 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.

• Do not modify the product in any way or use parts and accessories that are not recommended by the manufacturer.

WARNING! If the product is dropped, suffers heavy impact, or begins to vibrate abnormally, immediately turn off the product and inspect for damage or identify the cause of the vibration. Any damage should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre.

• To reduce the risk of injury associated with contacting moving 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 an accident or a breakdown. Do not operate the product again until it has been fully checked by an authorised service centre.

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 operate 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 a 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.
