 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 chemical: work in a well-ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to lter out microscopic particles.

GENERAL BATTERY-OPERATED POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WORK AREA SAFETY
◾Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
◾Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
◾Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
PERSONAL SAFETY
◾Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
◾Always use personal protective equipment. Personal protective equipment
such as eye protection, dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat and/or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

56V LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS BLOWER — LBX6000 7
◾Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to the battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or energizing power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
◾Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a moving part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
◾Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
◾Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair and
clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or longhair can be
caught in moving parts.
◾If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
◾Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
◾Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
◾Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
◾Remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool and/or
activate any battery disabling device before clearing jammed material,
making any adjustments, changing accessories, cleaning, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
◾Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power
tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

56V LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS BLOWER — LBX60008
◾Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect
the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools and
accessories.
◾Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
◾Use the power tool, accessories, tool bits, etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
◾Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces may lead to unsafe handling
and/or loss of control of the tool.
◾Keep cables away from the working area of the tool. During operation cables
may be hidden from view and can be accidentally damaged by the tool.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
◾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 only with the battery packs and chargers listed
below.
BATTERY PACK CHARGER
BAX1501 CHX5500
◾Use power tools 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 contact
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.

56V LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS BLOWER — LBX6000 9
◾Do not use a battery pack or tool 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 tool to re or excessive temperature.
Exposure to re or temperature above 212 °F (100°C) may cause explosion.
◾Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or
tool outside the temperature range specied in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specied range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of re.
SERVICE
◾Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
◾Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BLOWER
◾Do not allow the blower to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when
used by or near children.
◾Do not put any object into any openings. Do not use with any opening
blocked; keep openings free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may
reduce air ow.
◾Keep hair, loose clothing, ngers, and all parts of body away from openings
and moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn into air
vents.
◾Secure long hair above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in moving
parts.
◾Do not use on a ladder, rooftop, tree, or other unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the blower in unexpected
situations.
◾Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
◾Do not leave blower unattended when the battery is inserted. Remove the
battery when the blower is not in use and before servicing.
◾Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

substances. Spreading these substances could result in serious injury to the
operator or bystanders.
◾Never place the blower on any surface, except a hard, clean surface when
the engine is running. Gravel, sand, and other debris can be picked up by the air
inlet and thrown at the operator or bystanders, causing possible serious injuries.

others who may use this tool. If you loan this tool to someone else, also loan
these instructions to them to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.
