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.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.
2.1 TRAINING
Do not allow children under the age of 14 to operate this
tool. Children who are 14 years of age or older must read
and understand the operating instructions and safety rules
in this manual and must be trained and supervised by a
parent.
Read the operating and service instruction manual
carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and
the proper use of the power tool. Know how to stop the
unit and disengage the controls quickly.
Never allow children to operate the power tool. Never
allow adults to operate the power tool without proper
instruction.
Keep the area of operation clear of all persons,
particularly small children, and pets.
Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling, especially
when operating in reverse.
Do not use on graveled surfaces.
Dress Properly – Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
They can be caught in moving parts.
Wear appropriate boots when operating the snow thrower.
Operation of the snow thrower in the hand-held position
is unsafe, except in accordance with the special
instructions for such use provided in the operators
manual.
2.2 PREPARATION
Thoroughly inspect the area where the power tool is to be
used and remove all doormats, sleds, boards, wires, and
other foreign objects.
Do not operate the power tool without wearing adequate
winter garments. Wear footwear, which will improve
footing on slippery surfaces.
Adjust the housing height to clear gravel or crushed rock
surface.
Never attempt to make any adjustments while the
machine is running (except where specifically
recommended by manufacturer).
Always wear safety glasses or eye shields during
operation or while performing an adjustment or repair to
protect eyes from foreign objects that may be thrown
from the machine.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off-position before connecting to battery pack, picking up
or carrying the appliance. Carrying the appliance with
your finger on the switch or energizing appliance that
have the switch on invites accidents.
Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other
metal objects,like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screw 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.
