IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
■ Do not mis-use tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
■ Do not use on a ladder, roof top, tree, or other unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface
enables better control of the blower in unexpected situations.
■ Keep rm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can result in loss of balance.
■ Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
■ Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the power switch is not on before plugging in.
■ Do not leave the tool when plugged in. Unplug from the power outlet when not in use, before
servicing, and before storing the tool. Turn o all controls before unplugging. Such preventative
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
■ Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or o. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
■ Do not use with a damaged plug. If the tool is not working as it should or has been dropped,
damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, take it to a qualied service dealer for inspection and
possible repair.
■ Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 50 ft. away.
■ Do not operate this unit when you are tired, ill, upset or under the inuence of alcohol, drugs, or
medication.
■ Do not operate in poor lighting.
■ Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep openings free of
dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air ow.
■ 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.
■ Never use blower near res, replaces, hot ashes, barbecue pits, etc., which may cause re to

or corners. Do not run appliances over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
■ Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
■ Use only identical manufacturers replacement parts and accessories. Use of any other parts may
create a hazard or cause product damage.
■ 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 done only by qualied service personnel. Replacement
parts for a double insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
■ Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use
one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least
14 is recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in
line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
■ Do not point the blower nozzle in the direction of people or pets.
■ Never place the blower/vacuum on any surface, except a hard, clean surface when the motor is
running. Gravel, sand, and other debris can be picked up by the air inlet and thrown at the operator
or bystanders, causing possible serious injuries.
