IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Fail-
ure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury.
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
THIS BLOWER
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this tool has a po-
larized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will
require the use of a polarized extension cord. The plug
will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the
plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized
extension cord. A polarized extension cord will require
the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the
polarized wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper wall outlet. Do not change the equipment plug,
extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any
way.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes,
radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Wa-
ter entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
Do not handle plug or tool with wet hands.
Use outdoor extension cords marked W-A, W,
SW-A,
SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-
A.
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the
risk of electric shock.
Never allow children to operate the equipment. Never
allow adults to operate the equipment without proper
instruction.
Always wear safety glasses with side shields.
Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They
are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of eye injury. Use face mask if operation is dusty.
Wear eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI
Z87.1 when operating this product.
Wear heavy long pants, boots, and gloves. Avoid loose
garments or jewelry that could get caught in moving parts
of the machine or its motor.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your applica-
tion. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it is designed.
Do not operate the equipment while barefoot or when
wearing sandals or similar lightweight footwear. Wear
protective footwear that will protect your feet and improve
your footing on slippery surfaces.
Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent
entanglement in any moving parts.
Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Over-
reaching can result in loss of balance.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the power switch is not
on before plugging in. Turn off power switch before unplug-
ging.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is danger-
ous and must be repaired.
Do not use with damaged plug. If tool is not working as
it should or has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors,
or dropped into water, return it to an authorized service
center.
Do not leave the tool when plugged in. Unplug from the
power outlet when not in use, before servicing, and be-
fore storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
� Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 50 ft.
away.
� Do not operate this unit when you are tired, ill, or under
the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Do not operate in poor lighting.
� Keep all parts of your body away from any moving parts
and all hot surfaces of the unit.
� Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any
opening blocked; keep openings free of dust, lint, hair,
and anything that may reduce air flow.
Check the work area before each use. Remove all objects
such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string which
can be thrown or become entangled in the machine.
� Use only identical manufacturer’s replacement parts and
accessories. Use of any other parts may create a hazard
or cause product damage.

WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire
gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an
extension cord 50 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in
line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
� Do not point the blower nozzle in the direction of people
or pets.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
Never run the unit without the proper equipment attached.
Always ensure the blower tubes are installed.
When not in use, blower should be stored indoors in a
dry, locked up place—out of the reach of children.
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this blower. If
you loan someone this unit, loan them these instructions
also.

The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can
result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power tool operation, always wear safety goggles or
safety glasses with side shields and, when needed, a full face shield. We recommend Wide Vision Safety
Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with side shields. Always use eye protection
which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.

EXTENSION CORDS
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from
a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has
the capacity to handle the current the tool will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in
overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine
the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only
round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories
(UL) should be used.
When working outdoors with a tool, use an extension cord
that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is desig-
nated with “WA” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.

**Used on 12 gauge - 20 amp circuit.
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the working area.
Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber,
tools, or other obstructions while you are working with
a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious per-
sonal injury.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged
replace immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord
since touching the damaged area could cause electrical
shock resulting in serious injury.
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.
NOTE: Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires
extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be
performed only by a qualified service technician. For service,
we suggest you return the tool to your nearest authorized
service center for repair. Always use original factory replace-
ment parts when servicing.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This tool has a precision-built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC
only (normal household current). Do not operate this tool
on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause
a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If your tool does
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the
power supply.
GFCI
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be
provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the tool.
Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection
