CAUTION:
on its side on a stable surface where it will not
cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools will
stand upright but may be easily knocked over.
Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
•
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size
•
(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. 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. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using
more than one extension to make up the total length,
be sure each individual extension contains at least the
minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Servicing of Double Insulated Appliances

Your blower is double-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 for a double
insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they
replace. A double insulated appliance 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 will be used outside, the cord must
be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked as outdoor
can also be used for indoor work.
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.

Polarized Plug
12
12
To reduce the risk of 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. If the
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 tool plug or extension cord in any way.
Motor
Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate
marking. Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss
of power and overheating. These tools are factory tested; if
this tool does not operate, check power supply.

Intended Use

This blower vac is intended for home use.
DO nOT use under wet conditions or in presence of
flammable liquids or gases.
DO nOT let children come into contact with the tool.
