This appliance is provided with double insulation. Use only identical replacement parts. See instructions for Servicing of Double-Insulated Appliances.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Do not use on wet surfaces.
Do not charge the unit outdoors.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one blower may create a risk of injury when used on another blower.
Do not handle plug, blower, 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.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
Turn off all controls before unplugging or removing battery.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
Do not operate blowers in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Blowers create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors at least 50 ft. away while operating a blower. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
A battery operated blower 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 blower only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. 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 blower. Do not use blower while tired, upset, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating blowers may result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Secure long hair above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in moving parts.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the off position before plugging in the cord or inserting battery pack. Carrying blowers with your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a blower with the switch on invites accidents.
Do not use on a ladder, rooftop, tree, or other unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better control of the blower in unexpected situations.
Do not use blower if switch does not turn it on or off.
A blower that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect Power-Disconnect battery pack or power cord from blower and place the switch in the off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the blower. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the blower 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.

ELECTRICAL (AC)
DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is intended to protect the user from shock resulting from a break in the tool’s internal insulation. Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical shock.
Make sure the cord and extension cord are securely attached as shown in Figure 5, then connect the plug end of the power cord into the receptacle end of the extension cord. Check that connection is secure.
