• Battery chemicals cause serious burns – Never let a

damaged battery pack contact the skin, eyes or mouth. If a

damaged battery pack leaks battery chemicals, use rubber

or neoprene gloves to safely dispose of it. If skin is exposed

to battery uids, wash the aected area with soap and

water and rinse with vinegar. If eyes are exposed to battery

chemicals, immediately ush with water for

20 minutes and seek medical attention. Remove and

dispose of contaminated clothing.

• Do not short circuit – A battery pack will short circuit if

a metal object makes a connection between the positive

and negative contacts on the battery pack. Do not place a

battery pack near anything that may cause a short circuit,

such as paper clips, coins, keys, screws, nails and other

metallic objects. A short-circuited battery pack poses a risk

of re and severe personal injury.

• Store your battery packs and charger in a cool, dry

place – Do not store the battery packs or charger where

temperatures may exceed 105ºF (40.5ºC), such as in

direct sunlight or inside a vehicle or metal building during

the summer.

Information about the batteries

1. The battery packs supplied with your cordless blower vac

are only partially charged. The battery packs have to be

charged completely before you use the tool for the

rst time.

2. For optimum battery performance, avoid low discharge

cycles by charging the battery packs frequently.

3. Store the battery packs in a cool place, ideally at 77°F

(25°C) and charged to at least 40%.

4. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural aging

process. The battery packs must be replaced at the latest

when the capacity falls to just 80% of their capacity when

new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no

longer capable of meeting the high power requirements

needed for the proper operation of your blower vac, and

therefore pose a safety risk.

5. Do not throw battery packs into an open re as this poses

a risk of explosion.

6. Do not ignite the battery packs or expose them to re.

7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive

discharge will damage the battery cells. The most

common cause of exhaustive discharge is lengthy

storage or non-use of partially discharged batteries. Stop

working as soon as the performance of the batteries falls

noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers.

Place the battery packs in storage only after they have

been fully charged.

8. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads

will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside

the battery housing even if this overheating is not

apparent externally.

9. Avoid damage and shocks. Immediately replace batteries

that have been dropped from a height of more than one

meter or those that have been exposed to violent shocks,

even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be

undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have

suered serious damage. In such instances, please read

the waste disposal information for proper battery disposal.

10. If the battery packs suer overloading and overheating,

the integrated protective cuto will switch o the

equipment for safety reasons.

IMPORTANT! Do not press the ON/OFF switch any more

if the protective cut-o has been activated. This may

damage to the battery packs.

11. Use only original battery packs. The use of other batteries

poses a re risk and may result in injuries or an explosion.

Information about the charger and the

charging process

1. Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the

battery charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger

to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating

plate. Never connect it to a dierent mains voltage.

2. Protect the battery charger and its cord from damage.

Keep the charger and its cord away from heat, oil and

sharp edges. Have damaged cords repaired without delay

by a qualied technician at an authorized Snow Joe® +

Sun Joe® dealer or call the Snow Joe® + Sun Joe®

customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE

(1-866-766-9563).

3. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify

the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with

grounded appliances. Unmodied plugs and matching

outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.

4. Keep the battery charger, battery packs and the cordless

tool out of the reach of children.

5. Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other

cordless tools.

6. During periods of heavy use, the battery packs will

become warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to

room temperature before connecting it to the charger

to recharge.

7. Do not overcharge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum

charging times. These charging times only apply to

discharged batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or

partially charged battery pack will result in overcharging

and cell damage. Do not leave batteries in the charger for

days on end.

8. Never use or charge batteries if you suspect that they

have been more than 12 months since the last time they

were charged. There is a high probability that the battery

pack has already suered dangerous damage

(exhaustive discharge).

9. Charging batteries at a temperature below 41°F (5°C) will

cause chemical damage to the cells and may cause a re.

10. Do not use batteries that have been exposed to heat

during the charging process, as the battery cells may have

suered dangerous damage.

11. Do not use batteries that have suered curvature or

deformation during the charging process or those that

exhibit other atypical symptoms (gassing, hissing,

cracking, etc.).

12. Never fully discharge the battery packs (maximum

recommended depth of discharge is 80%). A complete

discharge of the battery packs will lead to premature aging

of the battery cells.

Protection from environmental inuences

1. Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety goggles.

2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery charger from

moisture and rain. Moisture and rain can cause dangerous

cell damage.

3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near

vapors and ammable liquids.

4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools only in dry

conditions and at an ambient temperature of 41ºF – 105°F

(5°C – 40.5°C).

5. Do not keep the battery charger in places where the

temperature is liable to reach over 105°F (40.5°C).

In particular, do not leave the battery charger in a car that

is parked in the sunshine.

6. Protect batteries from overheating. Overloads,

overcharging and exposure to direct sunlight will result

in overheating and cell damage. Never charge or work

with batteries that have been overheated – replace them

immediately, if possible.

7. Store the charger and your cordless tool only in dry

locations with an ambient temperature of 41ºF – 105°F

(5°C – 40.5°C). Store your lithium-ion battery packs in a

cool, dry place at a temperature of 77°F (25°C). Protect

the battery packs, charger and cordless tool from humidity

and direct sunlight. Only place fully charged batteries in

storage (charged to at least 40%).

8. Prevent the lithium-ion battery packs from freezing.

Battery packs that were stored below 32°F (0°C) for more

than 60 minutes must be discarded.

9. When handling batteries, be wary of electrostatic charge.

Electrostatic discharges can damage the electronic

protection system and the battery cells. Avoid electrostatic

charging and never touch the battery poles.

3. To stop the tool, slide the speed selector + switch

backward until the notches in the housing align with the

0 position (Fig. 14).

mWARNING! After switching o the tool the motor

continues to run for a few seconds.

Speed Control

This unit is equipped with ve variable speed settings

(1 to 5) (Fig. 14), which can be controlled by the speed

selector + switch.

To set the wind speed, scroll the speed selector + switch

until the desired speed mark is lined up with the notches on

the housing.

Blower Mode

mWARNING! Before operating with the blower/vac

mode selector, make sure that the mode selector lever moves

smoothly and is not obstructed by debris from previous use.

• To use the unit in the blower mode, turn the blower/vac

mode selector lever to BLOWING MODE. Turn unit on

(Fig. 15).

• Hold the blower rmly with one hand on the rear handle

and the other hand on the front handle. Sweep from side

to side with the wheels on ground.

• Slowly advance the unit by the wheels, keeping the

accumulated pile of debris in front of you. Most dry

blowing operations are better suited to low speeds rather

than high speeds. High speed blowing is best for moving

heavier items like large debris or gravel.

Vacuum/Mulcher Mode

mWARNING! Any hard objects, such as stones, cans

and glass, will damage the impeller.

mWARNING! Do not use the unit to suck up water or

very wet debris.

mWARNING! Never operate the unit in vacuum/mulcher

mode without the collection bag being assembled on.

• Once you have blown the debris/leaves into a pile, you

can convert to vacuum mode to collect the debris.

• Ensure the collection bag are assembled correctly before

operating. Turn the blower/vac mode selector lever to

VACUUM MODE. Turn unit on (Fig. 16).

• With a rm hold on the vac, tilt the tube 5 – 10 cm from

the ground and use a sweeping action to collect light

debris. The debris will ow into the bag. Items such as

small leaves and twigs will be mulched as they pass

through the fan housing. For longer bag life and increased

performance, empty the bag frequently.

mWARNING! Switch o the tool and remove the

batteries, and wait until the impeller comes to a standstill before

dumping the collection bag.

• Open the zipper of the collection bag and empty it

completely (Fig. 17).

• Compost material does not belong with domestic waste.

• Regularly empty collection bag (the vacuum capacity

decreases considerably when the collection bag is full).

mWARNING! Do not vacuum solid objects such as

stones, broken glass, pieces of metal.

mWARNING! Do not vacuum liquids.

mWARNING! Do not vacuum large volumes of leaf

material at one time thus avoiding clogging of the vacuuming

opening and blocking of the mulcher impeller.

NOTE: The mulching intensity depends on the size of the leaf

material and its residual moisture.

Operating Tips

mWARNING! Use the blower + vacuum + mulcher only in

daylight or good articial light.

• When using the blower vac, plant your feet rmly on the

ground and place one hand on the rear handle and the

other hand on the front handle.

• Wear personal protective equipment during your work

session. This includes boots, safety glasses/goggles, ear

defenders, long pants and a long-sleeve shirt.

• When using the unit as vac/mulcher, make sure the bag is

properly installed and zipped closed.

• Make sure the blower tube is not directed at anybody or

any loose debris before starting the unit.

• Verify that the unit is in good working condition. Make sure

the tube (and/or bag) is in place and secure.

• Use the shoulder strap when using the unit as a

vac/mulcher.

• Use the supporting wheels to easily guide the tube along

the ground.

• Operate power equipment only at reasonable hours—not

early in the morning or late at night when people might be

disturbed. Comply with times listed in local ordinances.

Typical recommendations are 9:00 am to 5:00 pm,

Monday through Saturday.

• To reduce noise levels, limit the number of pieces of

power equipment used at any one time and operate power

blowers at the lowest possible speed setting necessary to

do the job.

• Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.

• In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces.

the machine in vacuum/mulcher mode with high speed.

Idle the unit for a while to clean up any residual debris.

Cleaning

1. Use a small brush to clean the outside of the unit. Do not

use strong detergents, household cleaners that contain

aromatic oils (e.g. pine and lemon) or harsh solvents such

dry cloth.

2. Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to prevent

overheating.

needed. Turn the bag inside out after initial emptying and

vigorously shake out dust and debris.
