Overview

This document describes the Bauer 21102E-B Electric Handheld Blower, a device designed for various blowing tasks.

Function Description

The Bauer 21102E-B Electric Handheld Blower is primarily used for generating a powerful stream of air to clear debris, leaves, and other light materials from surfaces. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, with specific precautions for each environment. The blower features a control dial that allows users to adjust the air speed, offering flexibility for different tasks. It is designed to be a user-friendly tool for general cleanup and maintenance.

Important Technical Specifications

The blower operates on a 120VAC / 60Hz power supply and draws 12 Amperes. It is a double-insulated appliance, meaning it has two systems of insulation provided instead of grounding. This design eliminates the need for a grounded outlet, as it provides extra protection against electric shock. The blower is equipped with a polarized plug to further enhance safety by ensuring proper electrical connection.

The extension cord requirements are crucial for safe and efficient operation. The manual provides a table for minimum wire gauge for extension cords (120 Volt) based on the ampere rating and cord length. For a 12-16 Ampere rating:

  • 25' cord requires 16 AWG
  • 50' cord requires 14 AWG
  • 100' cord requires 12 AWG
  • 150' cord requires 12 AWG For a 10-12 Ampere rating:
  • 25' cord requires 18 AWG
  • 50' cord requires 16 AWG
  • 100' cord requires 14 AWG
  • 150' cord requires 12 AWG For a 6-10 Ampere rating:
  • 25' cord requires 18 AWG
  • 50' cord requires 18 AWG
  • 100' cord requires 16 AWG
  • 150' cord requires 14 AWG For a 0-6 Ampere rating:
  • 25' cord requires 18 AWG
  • 50' cord requires 18 AWG
  • 100' cord requires 18 AWG
  • 150' cord requires 16 AWG Using an undersized extension cord can lead to a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. The blower's control dial offers three speed settings: 1 turn for low speed, 2 turns for medium speed, and 3 turns for high speed.

Usage Features

Setup and Assembly: The blower requires minimal assembly. The blower tube is attached to the blower outlet by aligning the tab on the tube with the tube release latch on the blower and pushing until it clicks securely. It is important to ensure the tube is firmly attached before operation to prevent it from flying off during use.

Operation: Before operating, users should wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including long pants, long sleeves, protective footwear, ANSI-approved safety goggles, a dust mask, hearing protectors, and gloves. The blower should be connected to a grounded 120VAC outlet using an appropriate extension cord. The control dial is used to turn the appliance on and off and to select the desired speed setting. To turn the blower on, rotate the control dial. To adjust the speed, continue rotating the dial. To turn it off, rotate the dial back to the "0" position. When finished, the power cord should be unplugged. For cleaning, wipe external surfaces of the appliance with a clean cloth. Store the blower in an indoor, dry area out of reach of children.

Safety Precautions: The manual emphasizes several safety warnings. Users should always inspect the area before using the blower to avoid disturbing debris that could cause injury or property damage. The blower should not be used to blow debris in the direction of people, animals, or property. It is crucial to prevent serious injury from accidental operation by ensuring the control dial is off and the appliance is unplugged before performing any procedure. To prevent serious injury from flying debris, wear appropriate protective gear. To prevent serious injury from appliance failure, do not use damaged equipment, and if abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected.

The blower is designed for household use only and should not be used for commercial or industrial applications. It is not intended for use in wet conditions or near flammable liquids or gases. Users should avoid prolonged exposure to vibration, which can cause temporary or permanent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms, and shoulders. Regular medical checkups are recommended for those who frequently use vibrating tools.

Maintenance Features

Cleaning and Lubrication: Before each use, the blower should be inspected for general condition. This includes checking 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. After use, the external surfaces of the appliance should be wiped with a clean cloth. The blower should be stored in a dry, indoor area, out of reach of children. All parts are permanently lubricated, so no additional lubrication is needed.

Repair and Replacement: In case of damage or malfunction, the appliance should not be repaired by the user. Any repairs or replacements of parts should be performed by a qualified service technician. The manual provides a parts list and diagram for reference, which includes components such as the rear guard, power supply board, housing assembly, motor, blower tube, and control dial. This information is useful for technicians to identify and order the correct replacement parts.
