SAerv!cing of Double Insulated

ppllances

Your BlowerNac isdouble-insulated to
give you added safety. 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 qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts fora double insulated
appliance must be identicalto the parts they
replace. A double insulatedappliance is marked

with the words double insulated or "double
insulation". The symbol (square within a square)

may also be marked on the appliance.

_Safety Rules and Instructions:
Extension Cords

Double insulated tools have 2-wire cords
and can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire

extension cords. Only round jacketed
extension cords should be used, and

we recommend that they be listed by
Underwriters Laboratories (U.L) (C.S.A.

in Canada). If the extension wilt be used
outside, the cord must be suitable for

outdoor use. Any cord marked as outdoor
can also be used for indoor work.

An extension cord must have adequate
wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge)
for safety, and to prevent loss of power and
overheating. The smaller the gauge number
of the wire, the greater the capacity of the
cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity
than 18 gauge. When using more than one
extension to make up the total length, be

sure each individual extension contains at
least the minimum wire size. Before using

an extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires, damaged insulation, and
defective fittings. Make any needed repairs
or replace the cord if necessary.

To determine the minimum wire size

required, refer to the chart:

Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet

I20V 0-25 26-50 51-I00 I01-150
240V 0-50 51-100 I01-200 I01-300

z_Safety Rules and Instructions:
Polarized Plug. , ,

To reduce the risK or electric ShOCk,this
equipment has a polarized plug (one blade

is wider than the other). This equipment
must be used with a suitable polarized 2

wire or 3 wire extension cord. Polarized
connections will fit together only one way.

Make sure that the receptacle end of the
extension cord has large and small blade
slot widths. Ifthe plug does not fit fully into
the extension cord, reverse the plug. If it

still does not fit, obtain a suitable extension
cord. If the extension cord does not fit fully

into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician
to install the proper outlet. Do not change
the toot plug or extension cord in any way.

Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to
clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside
the tool; never immerse any part of the tool

into a liquid. Clean out any clippings which

may have accumulated in the BIowerNac.
When used properly with dry leaves the fan
chamber of your BlowerNac should remain
clean. If damp earth and debris are ingested

some of the particles may build up on the

inside of the fan chamber. Ifthis happens
the performance of the unit will decrease.
This area can be cleaned out using a
wooden stick as shown in figure S after
disconnecting from the power source. Your

BlowerNac should be stored in a dry place.

WARNING: SHOCK

HAZARD. DO NOT POUR OR SPRAY
WATER ON THE TOOL IN AN ATTEMPT
TO CLEAN.

Do not store the toot on or adjacent to
fertilizers or chemicals. Such storage can
cause rapid corrosion of the metal parts.

AVERTISSEMENT :

Afin de minimiser les risques de secousses
electriques, proteger de ta ptuie, ne pas
s'enservir sur des surfaces mouitlees et

ranger & I'interieur.

AVERTISSEMENT :

RISQUE DE COUPURE. Arr_ter et debrancher

Entretien des outils a double

isolation

La souffleuse-aspirateur b,double isolation
procure une protection supplementaire. Dans
ce type d'outil, les deux systemes d'isolant
remplacent la mise Ala terre. IIn'y a aucun
moyen de mettre I'outil b, la terre et aucun
systeme de mise a.la terre ne dolt etre ajoute

b,I'outil. L'entretien d'un outil Adouble isolation
exige beaucoup de soin et une excellente

connaissance du systeme; il ne devrait etre
confie qu'b.un technicien competent. Les
pieces de rechange de ce type d'outil doivent
etre identiques aux pieces d'origine. Un outil

b,double isolation porte I'inscription <,DOUBLE
INSULATED>>ou <<DOUBLEINSULATION>>.

Le symbole (un carre & I'interieur d'un carte)
peut aussi figurer sur I'outil.

zLMesures de securite - cordons

de rallonge

Les outits &double isolation sont munis

d'un cordon bifilaire et ils peuvent etre

utitises avec un cordon de rallonge muni de

2 ou de 3 fils. It faut seulement utitiser des
cordons de raltonge & gaine ronde et ils

devraient etre homotogues par I'organisme
americain Underwriters Laboratories

(U.L) ou ta CSA (au Canada). Lorsque le

cordon de rallonge est utilise & I'exterieur,

it dolt etre prevu & cet effet. Tout cordon

exterieur peut servir & l'interieur.

Les cordons de rallonge doivent etre

faits de conducteurs de calibre approprie

(AWG ou calibre moyen de ill) par mesure

de securite et afin de prevenir les pertes
de puissance et les surchauffes. Le

numero de calibre du fil est inversement

proportionnel & la capacite du cordon.
Ainsi, un cordon de calibre 16 a une
capacite superieure & un cordon de
calibre 18. Lorsqu'il est necessaire d'utiliser

plus d'un cordon de raltonge, veilter & ce
que chaque cordon ait au moins le calibre

minimal. Avant d'utitiser un cordon de

rallonge, s'assurer qu'it n'y a pas de ills
denudes ni detaches, et que I'isolant et les

raccords ne sont pas defectueux. Effectuer

les reparations necessaires ou remplacer

le cordon, le cas echeant.

Le tableau ci-dessous permet de
determiner le calibre minimal des cordons.

ZLMesures de securite : fiche

polarisee

Afin de minimiser les risques de secousses
etectriques, le produit comporte une

fiche polarisee (une lame plus large que

I'autre). It faut utitiser une raltonge polarisee
appropriee, bifitaire ou trifilaire, avec ce

produit. Ce genre de fiche n'entre que d'une
fa(;on dans une prise potarisee. S'assurer

que la prise de la rallonge comporte
des fentes de dimensions appropriees.

Lorsqu'on ne peut inserer la fiche & fond
dans la prise de la rallonge, il faut tenter

de le faire apres avoir inverse les lames de
c6t& Si la fiche n'entre toujours pas dans

la prise, il faut se procurer une rallonge
appropriee. Lorsqu'on ne peut inserer la

fiche de la rallonge & fond dans la prise,

it faut communiquer avec un electricien

I'outit ni celle de la rallonge.
