► Place the blower on a level surface.
► Insert the battery (1) into the battery compartment (2) until
you hear an audible click.

visible and the battery is locked in the battery
compartment. There is no electrical contact between the
battery and the blower.

battery compartment until it stops.
The battery is properly inserted when you hear a second
audible click and the battery is flush with the top of the
