IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may

result in electric shock, re, and/or serious personal injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated (corded)

power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

• Read the operator’s manual carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the

proper use of the equipment.

• When servicing use only identical replacement parts. Replace or repair damaged cord.

• Walk. Do not run.

• Verify that the power tool is not in contact with anything before turning it on.

• Stay away from impeller openings at all times. Keep face, hands, and feet away from

concealed, moving, or rotating parts.

• Be attentive when using the power tool, and stay alert for holes in the terrain and

other hidden hazards or trafc.

• Turn the power tool off and remove battery from the tool when not in use, before

servicing, when changing accessories, and the like.

• Do not operate the power tool if the guards, plates, and other safety protective

devices are not in place.

• Do not operate the power tool near glass enclosures, automobiles, trucks, window

wells, drop-offs, etc. without properly adjusting the angle of the snow discharge.

Keep children and pets away from the work area.

• Use the power tool in daylight or in good articial light. If using at night, turn on the LED

lights and be aware of your surroundings.

• Avoid Accidental Starting - Don’t carry the power tool with nger on switch. Be sure

switch is off when inserting battery.

• Use this power tool only for the purposes it was designed.

• Hold the power tool with both hands while it is in use. Keep a rm grip on the handles.

• Keep the impeller clear of debris.

• After striking a foreign object, turn the power tool off and remove the battery pack,

and then inspect it for damage. Repair any damage before restarting and using the power

tool.

• If the power tool starts to vibrate abnormally, stop the power tool immediately and

attempt to determine the cause. Vibration is generally an indication of danger.

• Stop the motor and remove the battery pack whenever the operator is not in the

operating position, before unclogging the impeller, and before making any repairs,

adjustments, or inspections.

• Do not use on graveled surface unless the power tool is adjusted for such a surface

in accordance with the operator’s manual.

• Keep Children Away– All visitors should be kept a safe distance from work area.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Dress Properly – Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving

parts.

• Wear rubber boots when operating the power tool. Do not operate the equipment when

barefoot or wearing open sandals. Always wear substantial footwear.

• Operation of the power tool in the hand-held position is unsafe, except in accordance

with the special instructions for such use provided in the operator’s manual.

• Keep guards in place and in working order.

• Don’t Force Power tool – It will perform better and safer at the rate for which it was

designed.

• Don’t Overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

• If the power tool strikes a foreign object, follow these steps:

i) Stop the power tool. Release the switch, remove the battery.

ii) Inspect for damage.

iii) Repair any damage before restarting and operating the power tool.

• Store Idle Power tool Indoors – When not in use, power tools should be stored

indoors in dry, locked-up place – out of reach of children.

• Maintain Power tools With Care – Follow instructions for lubricating and changing

accessories.

• Allow the power tool to run for a few minutes after clearing snow in order to prevent

moving parts from freezing.

• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to

battery pack, picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the appliance with your nger on

the switch or energizing appliance that have the switch on invites accidents.

• Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce the

risk of starting the appliance accidentally.

• Recharge only with the charger specied by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable

for one type of battery pack may create a risk of re when used with another battery pack.

• Use appliances only with specically designated battery packs. Use of any other

battery packs may create a risk of injury and re.

• 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 re.

• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact.

If contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek

medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

• Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modied. Damaged or

modied batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in re explosion or risk of

injury.

• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to re or excessive temperature. Exposure

to re or temperature above 130°C may cause explosion.

• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance

outside of the temperature range specied in the instructions. Charging improperly or

at temperatures outside of the specied range may damage the battery and increase the risk

of re.

OPERATING TIPS

WARNING

If the Snow Thrower hits a foreign object while it is in use, the object could be thrown in the

direction of the operator or a bystander. Thrown objects could cause serious personal injury.

Keep the area to be cleared free of all foreign objects that may be picked up and thrown by the

impeller.

• Keep the area of operation free of foreign objects that can become thrown by the impeller.

Perform a thorough inspection of the area since some objects may be hidden from view by

surrounding snow. lf the snow thrower hits an obstruction or picks up a foreign object during

use, stop the snow thrower, remove the battery, remove the obstruction, and inspect the unit

for damage. Repair or replace any damaged part before restarting and operating the unit.

• Keep children, pets, and bystanders away from the area of operation. Be aware that the

normal noise of the machine when turned on may make it difcult for you to hear approaching

people.

• When moving the snow thrower, use the wheels on one side as the pivot point. Slightly tilt the

snow thrower on this pivot point to move it forward or backward.

• Start your clearing path outward, throwing snow in a back and forth motion. To clear in the

opposite direction, pivot the snow thrower on its wheels. Make sure to overlap clearing paths.

• Note the wind direction. If possible, move in the same direction as the wind so that the snow

is not thrown against the wind (and thus back onto you and on the just cleared path).

• Do not push the snow thrower with excessive force. You should push the machine gently and

at a consistent speed in accordance with the unit's throw rate.

• Some parts of the snow thrower may freeze under extreme temperature conditions. Do not

attempt to operate the snow thrower with frozen parts. If the parts freeze while the snow

thrower is in use, stop the snow thrower, remove the battery, and inspect for frozen parts. Free

all parts before restarting or operating the snow thrower. Never force controls that are frozen.

• When working on pebbles, gravel, or unpaved surfaces, avoid throwing loose surface material

along with the snow by pushing down on the handle to raise the scraper at the base of the unit

above the pebbles or gravel.

• Cold Weather Operation: Lithium Ion batteries can be safely used from temperatures ranging

from -17 degrees to 45 degrees Celsius. NOTE: Do not store or charge battery outside.

Battery must be charged and stored indoors prior to use of the snow thrower.

• If the Snow thrower does not start initially remove battery from snow thrower. Place battery on

charger and allow to charge for 10 minutes. Remove from charger and install in Snowthrower

for use. The start-up issue may be caused from the battery being too cold. To avoid this issue,

ensure battery is stored in a dry cool place for storage and charging and leave indoors until

ready for use.
