SAFETY & WARNING INSTRUCTIONS
15. Before each use, thoroughly inspect
your unit for loose or damaged parts.
Do NOT use until adjustments or
repairs have been made.
16. All attachments must be installed
properly before operating the unit,
such as debris collector bag.
17. Keep all bystanders especially pets
and children at least fifty (50) feet
from the unit while using.
18. To avoid unintentionally starting of
the unit, do NOT carry plugged-in
unit with your finger on the switch.
Be sure the unit is unplugged.
19. Always remain alert and use common
sense when using this unit. To
prevent injury to yourself and to
others, NEVER use the leaf blower
when your are tired.

blower from unstable surfaces such
as ladders, trees, steep slopes,
rooftops, etc. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
22. Wear heavy, long pants, boots, gloves
and a long sleeve shirt. Do NOT wear
loose clothing, jewelry, short pants
sandals or go barefoot. Secure hair
above shoulder level.
23. Always turn switch off when
vacuuming or blowing is delayed or
when changing locations. Always
inspect new locations before
operating.
24. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
use only with an extension cord
intended for outdoor use such as
SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A,
SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A or
SJTOW-A.0
25. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) protection should always be
provided on electrical circuits or
outlets to be used for this unit.
26. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
use only with a two conductor
extension cord intended for outdoor
use.
27. Never connect the unit to an AC
voltage that differs from the one on
the unit’s rating plate.
28. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
this unit has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other) and will
require the use of a polarized
extension cord. This unit plug will fit
into a polarized extension cord only
one way. If the plug does not fit,
obtain a correct polarized extension
cord. A polarized extension cord
requires the use of a polarized wall
outlet. This plug will fit into a polarized
wall outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper wall
outlet. Do NOT change the unit plug,
extension cord receptacle or
extension cord plug in any way.
29. When using an extension cord, make
sure that it is a cord that is heavy
enough to carry the current that your
unit will draw. An undersized
extension cord will cause a drop is
line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. The table below
shows the correct size to use
depending on the cord length and
amperage rating.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electrocution,
keep all connections dry and off the
ground. Do NOT touch the plug with
wet hands.

Using your Leaf Blower as a
Vacuum
Your leaf blower can be used as a
vacuum to pick up dry material such as
leaves, grass, small twigs, sawdust or
bits of paper.
Do NOT use to vacuum up stones,
gravel, metal, broken glass etc, as this
could cause damage to impeller, or the
operator and bystanders if these objects
propelled through the bag.
1. Ensure that proper clothing is worn
and safety. glasses are used.
2. Set the blower/vacuum selection
lever to the vacuum mode. (Fig. 17)
3. Place the shoulder strap over your
head and onto your shoulder.
Adjust the length as instructed on
page 7.
4. Hold the leaf blower, tilting the
blower/vacuum tube slightly and
using a sweeping motion to collect
light debris. Small leaves and twigs
will flow into the vacuum bag and be
mulched as they pass through the
fan housing, allowing the vacuum
bag to hold more debris. Avoid
forcing the leaf blower into a pile of
debris as this can block the unit or
the blower/vacuum tube.
Note: If the leaf blower starts to vibrate
or make an abnormal sound, turn the unit
“Off”, unplug from power source and
check for the cause.
Warning: Do NOT use the leaf
blower to spread fertilizer or clear
any kind of powdered or dangerous
chemicals. This is highly dangerous and
could cause serious harm to the operator
and environment.
SAFETY & WARNING INSTRUCTION
32. The unit will continue to run for a few
seconds after the power is switched
off.
33. Do NOT rest the unit on any surface
while the unit is running. Debris such
as gravel, sand, dust, grass etc.
could be picked up by the air intake
and thrown out through the
discharge opening, damaging the
unit, property, or causing serious
injury to any person nearby.
34. Never run the unit without the proper
attachments. When used as a
blower, always install a blower tube.
Use only factory approved
attachments provided with the leaf
blower.

or other objects that may reduce air
flow.
36. To avoid accidental fire, do NOT use
blower near leaf or brush fires,
fireplaces, barbecue pits, ashtrays.
37. Do NOT use for spreading
chemicals, fertilizers, or any other
substances which may contain toxic
materials.
38. Store the unit in a dry place either
locked up or on a high shelf out of
the reach of children to prevent
unauthorized use or damage.
39. Do NOT place objects inside blower
tube or aim blowing debris towards
people, animals, glass, or solid
objects such as cars, trees, walls
etc. The force of the air can throw
objects with enough force to
seriously damage or harm people
or objects.
40. Allow motor to stop and disconnect
power source before opening the
air inlet attachment or to insert or
remove the vacuum tubes. The
motor must be stopped and the
impeller blades should no longer
be turning to avoid serious injury
from the rotating fan-like blades.
41. Inspect debris collector bag
BEFORE each use. Ensure that
bag is firmly zippered shut before
use.
WARNING: Hard objects can be
thrown through the debris collector bag
or the housing and become dangerous
missiles which can seriously injure
operator or bystanders.
42. When using the vacuum
attachment do NOT vacuum up
stones, gravel, glass, metal or
other objects that could damage
debris collector bag. The bag is
intended ONLY for dry materials
such as leaves, grass and very
small twigs.

proper installation of parts. When
using the vacuum, always install
vacuum tubes and debris collector
bag according to instructions.
46. Stop and disconnect unit from
power source. Inspect all openings
and tubes frequently, to ensure
safety from overheating and fire.
47. NEVER douse or squirt the unit
with water or any other liquid. Keep
handles dry, clean and free from

WARNING
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Using Your Leaf Blower
Warning: If any parts are missing,
damaged or broken, do NOT operate
the leaf blower until they have been
replaced. Failure to do so could result in
possible serious injury.
Warning: To prevent serious
personal injury, always use both the
front hand grip and the top handle to hold
the leaf blower during operation.
Warning: To prevent serious
personal injury, keep hands away
from the impeller. Make sure that the unit
is unplugged when clearing jammed
material from impeller. Do NOT grasp the
impeller when picking up or holding the
unit.
Warning: Always inspect area to be
cleared ensuring there are no large
hard objects that can cause serious injury.
Warning: Do NOT attempt to
vacuum water or other liquids or wet
objects such as wet leaves. This could
cause damage to the unit or cause
electrical shock.
Danger: Never vacuum very hard
objects such as nails, bolts, and rocks
as this will severely damage the unit. Hard
objects can be propelled through the
debris collector bag or the housing and
become dangerous missiles which can
cause serious injury to operator,
bystanders, or nearby solid objects. Avoid
burning debris that can cause the collector
bag to catch on fire. Do NOT operate near
an open flame. Do NOT vacuum up
discarded cigarettes, cigars, or embers
from fireplace, pits or BBQ’s.
Warning: Do NOT assemble or
disassemble the blower/vacuum tube
while the unit is running. Inserting or
removing the blower/vacuum tube while
unit is running can result in serious
injuries. Allow unit to stop and disconnect
from power source.
Warning: Do NOT use leaf
blower as a vacuum without the
vacuum bag in place and firmly attached.
Always make sure the vacuum bag’s
zipper is properly zipped before starting
the unit.
Your leaf blower can be used to sweep
debris or grass clippings from driveways,
sidewalks, or patios. Blowing grass
clippings, straw or leaves into piles for
easy clean-up and/or composting. Before
operating the leaf blower:
1. Ensure that proper clothing is worn
and safety glasses are used. (Fig.15)
2. Direct air flow by directing the blower
tube downwards or from side to side
in a sweeping motion.
3. To clean corners, work from tightest
point outwards.
