SAFETY WARNINGS FOR
4
BATTERY PACK
a) Do not dismantle, open or
shred cells or battery pack.
b) Do not short-circuit a
battery pack. Do not store
battery packs haphazardly
in a box or drawer where
they may short-circuit each
other or be short-circuited
by conductive materials.
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 burns or a
fire.
c) Do not expose battery
pack to heat or fire. Avoid
storage in direct sunlight.
d) Do not subject battery
pack to mechanical shock.
e) In the event of battery
leaking, do not allow the
liquid to come into contact
with the skin or eyes. If
contact has been made,
wash the affected area
with copious amounts of
water and seek medical
advice.
f) Seek medical advice
immediately if a cell or
battery pack has been
swallowed.
g) Keep battery pack clean
and dry.
h) Wipe the battery pack
terminals with a clean dry
cloth if they become dirty.
i) Battery pack needs to be
charged before use. Always
refer to this instruction and
use the correct charging
procedure.
j) Do not maintain battery
pack on charge when not
in use.
k) After extended periods
of storage, it may be
necessary to charge and
discharge the battery pack
several times to obtain
maximum performance.
l) Battery pack gives its best
performance when it is
operated at normal room
temperature (20°C ± 5°C).
m)When disposing of battery
Cordless Li-Ion Blower/Sweeper
WG549E WG549E.3 WG549E.5 WG549E.9
packs, keep battery packs
of different electrochemical
systems separate from each
other.
n) Recharge only with the
charger specified by
WORX. Do not use any
charger other than that
specifically provided for
use with the equipment.
A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
o) Do not use any battery
pack which is not designed
for use with the equipment.
p) Keep battery pack out of
the reach of children.
q) Retain the original product
literature for future
reference.
r) Remove the battery from
the equipment when not in
use.
s) Dispose of properly.

VIBRATION INFORMATION
Typical weighted vibration ah = 1.96m/s2 Uncertainty K = 1.5 m/s²
The declared vibration total value may be used for comparing one tool with another, and may
also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING: The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ
from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used dependant on the
following examples and other variations on how the tool is used:
Cordless Li-Ion Blower/Sweeper
WG549E WG549E.3 WG549E.5 WG549E.9
How the tool is used and the materials is cut or drilled.
The tool being in good condition and well maintained.
The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.
The tightness of the grip on the handles and any anti vibration accessories are used.
And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.
WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use
should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool
is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly
reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Help to minimize your vibration exposure risk.
ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades.
Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate).
If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration accessories.
Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10oC or less.
Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days.

1. BEFORE USING YOUR CORDLESS BLOWER
Your battery pack is UNCHARGED and you must charge
once before use.
The battery charger supplied is matched to the Li-Ion
battery installed in the machine. Do not use another
battery charger.
2. CHARGING YOUR BATTERY PACK
The Li-Ion battery is protected against deep
discharging. When the battery is empty, the machine is
switched off by means of a protective circuit:
In a warm environment or after heavy use, the battery
pack may become too hot to permit charging. Allow
time for the battery to cool down before recharging.

4. STARTING/STOPPING (See Fig. D)
Starting
Move the On/Off switch (2) to the “I” On position.
Stopping
Move the On/Off switch (2) to the “O” Off position.
WARNING! The tool runs for a few seconds after
it has been switched off. Let the motor come to a
complete standstill before setting the tool down.
5. USING THE BLOWER (See Fig. E)
The blower is intended for residential use only. Use the
blower outdoors to move debris from hard surfaces.
This blower is not designed to clear leaves from large
grassy areas, or move wet, heavy debris.
USER TIPS
- Hold the blow tube approx 180mm above the
ground when operating the tool.
Use a sweeping motion from side to side. Advance
slowly keeping the accumulated debris/leaves in
front of you.
- After blowing the debris/leaves into a pile, it is easy
to dispose of the pile.
CAUTION!

or rocks.
- Do not operate the blower near bystanders or
pets.
- Use extra care when cleaning debris from
stairs or other tight areas.
- Wear safety goggles or other suitable eye
protection, long pants, and shoes.
