When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
WARNING!
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING THIS LEAF VACUUM. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
Know your leaf vacuum. Read operator’s manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific potential hazards related to this
leaf vacuum. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
Do not permit children to use leaf vacuum. It is not a
toy. Close attention is necessary when used near children.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the
manufacturer for your model described in this manual.
Accessories that may be suitable for one leaf vacuum may
create a risk of injury when used on another leaf vacuum.
Use only as described in this manual.
Do not handle charger, including charger plug, and
charger terminals with wet hands.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with
any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and
anything that may reduce air flow.
Do not charge the unit outdoors.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body
away from openings and moving parts.
Turn off all controls before removing battery.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs or steps.
Do not operate leaf vacuums in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,
or dust. Battery products create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors at least 50 ft.
away while operating a leaf vacuum. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
A battery operated leaf vacuum with integral batteries
or a separate battery pack must be recharged only
with the specified charger for the battery. A charger
that may be suitable for one type of battery may create
a risk of fire when used with another battery.
Use battery operated leaf vacuum only with specifically
designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries
may create a risk of fire.
Use only with charger listed. For use with 40V lithium-ion
battery packs, see tool/appliance/battery pack/charger
correlation supplement 988000-842.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug,
which could cause shorting and electric shock. If
damaged, have the charger replaced by an authorized
service center.
If appliance is not working as it should, has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into
water, return it to a service center.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power leaf vacuum.
Do not use leaf vacuum while tired, upset, or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating leaf vacuums may result in
serious personal injury.
Secure long hair above shoulder level to prevent en-
tanglement in moving parts.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the
locked or off position before inserting battery pack.
Carrying leaf vacuums with your finger on the switch or
inserting the battery pack into a leaf vacuum with the
switch on invites accidents.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn
into air vents.
Do not use on a ladder, rooftop, tree, or other unstable
support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better
control of the leaf vacuum in unexpected situations.
Do not use leaf vacuum if switch does not turn it on or off.
A leaf vacuum that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect battery pack from leaf vacuum or place
the switch in the locked or off position before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the
leaf vacuum. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the leaf vacuum accidentally.
When 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 sparks, burns,
or a fire.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may
affect the leaf vacuum’s operation. If damaged, have
the leaf vacuum serviced before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained leaf vacuums.
