Overview

The Bauer 20V Hypermax Lithium Cordless Compact Workshop Blower, model 1916C-B, is a portable, battery-operated device designed for clearing debris in workshop and outdoor environments. It is part of the Bauer 20V Hypermax Lithium system, utilizing a 20V Bauer Li-Ion battery (sold separately).

Function Description:

The primary function of this device is to generate a powerful stream of air to blow away dust, dirt, leaves, and other light debris from surfaces and areas. It is intended for use in workshops, garages, and for light outdoor gardening tasks. The blower is designed to be compact and cordless, offering mobility and ease of use without the restriction of power cords.

Important Technical Specifications:

  • Battery Type: 20V Bauer Li-Ion (Battery sold separately)
  • Model Number: 1916C-B
  • No Load Revolutions per Minute (RPM): Indicated by "no xxxx/min." (specific RPM not provided in the manual's specifications table, but the symbology indicates it's a relevant metric).
  • Power Source: Cordless, powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery.

Usage Features:

  • Cordless Operation: Provides freedom of movement without being tethered to a power outlet, making it suitable for various locations.
  • Compact Design: The "Compact Workshop Blower" designation suggests a design optimized for maneuverability and storage in smaller spaces.
  • Trigger and Trigger Lock: The device features a trigger for momentary operation and a trigger lock for continuous operation, reducing user fatigue during extended use. To engage the lock-on function, the user presses the trigger fully and holds it, then presses and holds the trigger lock. Releasing the trigger first and then the trigger lock engages the lock-on. To release, the trigger is pressed again.
  • Speed Control Switch: Allows the user to adjust the blowing speed to suit different tasks and debris types, offering versatility in application.
  • Blower Tube: An essential component that directs the airflow. The manual emphasizes that the blower should not be used without the tube attached to prevent contact with internal moving parts and ensure safety.
  • 3-in-1 Nozzle: This accessory suggests enhanced versatility, allowing the user to adapt the airflow for different blowing requirements, such as concentrating the air for stubborn debris or spreading it for wider coverage.
  • Ergonomic Handle: Designed for comfortable gripping and control during operation.
  • Battery Compatibility: Integrates with the Bauer 20V Hypermax Lithium battery system, allowing users to share batteries across multiple Bauer 20V tools.
  • Safety Precautions: The manual stresses the importance of inspecting the work area, removing hard objects, and not blowing debris towards people, animals, or property. It also advises using both hands during operation.
  • Assembly: The blower tube and 3-in-1 nozzle are designed for easy attachment and removal, rotating clockwise to lock into place.

Maintenance Features:

  • Pre-Use Inspection: Before each use, the manual recommends inspecting the appliance for loose hardware, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation.
  • Post-Use Cleaning: After use, external surfaces should be wiped with a clean cloth.
  • Storage: The appliance should be stored in a dry, indoor area, out of reach of children.
  • Lubrication: All parts are permanently lubricated, and the manual explicitly states not to use additional lubrication.
  • Battery Care: The manual provides specific instructions for charging the battery pack according to the charger's instructions (charger and battery sold separately). It also highlights that Li-Ion batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly and should not be shorted, incinerated, or opened.
  • Damaged Parts Check: Before further use, any damaged guard or part should be carefully checked to ensure proper operation and repaired or replaced by a qualified technician if necessary.
  • Labels and Nameplates: Users are instructed to maintain labels and nameplates, contacting Harbor Freight Tools for replacements if unreadable or missing.
  • Professional Repair: Procedures not specifically explained in the manual must be performed only by a qualified technician, emphasizing that repairs and parts replacements should be undertaken by certified and licensed technicians.
  • Vibration Safety: The manual includes a section on vibration safety, advising users to wear suitable gloves, take vibration-free periods, and maintain the tool to reduce vibration. If abnormal vibration occurs, use should be stopped immediately.
  • Eye Protection: The symbology indicates that ANSI-approved safety goggles with side shields should be worn to protect against eye injury.
  • Fire and Electric Shock Safety: Warnings are provided regarding the charger's heat buildup, the need for adequate ventilation, and the importance of placing the charger on a stable, solid, nonflammable surface. It also includes warnings against covering charger ventilation ducts and properly connecting the charger's power cord to an appropriate outlet.
  • Explosion Risk: Warnings are given against puncturing, shorting, or opening battery packs, and against charging damaged battery packs.
