5 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

￭

Although certain unauthorized attachments may fit STIHL

blowers, their use may be extremely dangerous. Only

attachments supplied by STIHL or expressly approved by

STIHL for use with this specific model are recommended.

–

Use only attachments supplied or expressly

approved by STIHL.

–

Never modify this blower in any way.

–

Never attempt to modify or override the blower's

controls or safety devices in any way.

–

Never use a blower that has been modified or altered

from its original design.

–

Do not put any object into the openings of the

blower.

–

Do not use the blower with any openings blocked.

–

Keep the blower free of dust, lint, hair and anything

that might reduce air flow.

￭

If the blower is dropped or subjected to similar heavy

impacts:

–

Check that it is undamaged, in good condition and

functioning properly before continuing work.

–

Check that the controls and safety devices are

working properly.

–

Check the LEDs for error messages,

@

11.1.

–

Never work with a damaged or malfunctioning

blower.

–

Never use or charge a blower with a housing that is

cracked, deformed, excessively hot, leaking battery

fluid or otherwise damaged. These could be signs

that the battery inside the blower is damaged,

increasing the risk of personal injury and property

damage from short circuit, fire or explosion. In case

of doubt, have the blower checked by your

authorized STIHL servicing dealer.

￭

If the blower is damaged, not working properly, has been

left outdoors, exposed to rain or damp conditions or

dropped into water or other liquid, its components,

including its integrated battery, may no longer function

properly and safety devices may be inoperative. To

reduce the risk of personal injury and property damage:

–

Take the blower to your authorized STIHL servicing

dealer to be checked before further operation.

￭

Genuine STIHL replacement parts are specifically

designed to match your blower and meet safety and

performance requirements. Use of parts that are not

authorized or approved by STIHL may cause serious or

fatal injury or property damage.

–

STIHL recommends that only identical replacement

parts be used.

5.6

Integrated Battery

WARNING

￭

Use of an unauthorized charging device can damage the

lithium ion battery inside the blower and result in fire,

explosion and personal injury and property damage.

–

Charge the blower only with a genuine STIHL

LK 45

charger (power supply).

￭

The blower's integrated battery contains safety features

and devices which, if damaged, may allow it to generate

heat, rupture, leak, ignite or explode.

–

Be alert for signs that the battery may be damaged:

never use or charge a blower with a housing that is

cracked, deformed, excessively hot, leaking battery

fluid or otherwise damaged.

–

Do not incinerate the blower even if it is severely

damaged. The integrated battery can explode in a

fire.

–

Never attempt to remove the battery or open or

disassemble the blower's housing for any reason.

–

Never subject the blower to heavy impacts or

attempt to crush, drop or otherwise damage it.
