Replacement Part List

Toxic fumes and materials are created when battery packs
are burned.
• Do not crush, drop or damage battery packs – Do not
use the battery packs or charger if they have sustained a
sharp blow, been dropped, run over or have been damaged
in any way (i.e. pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer,
stepped on, etc.).
• Do not disassemble – Incorrect reassembly may pose
a serious risk of electric shock, re or exposure to toxic
battery chemicals. If the batteries or charger are damaged,
contact an authorized Snow Joe

+ Sun Joe

dealer or
call the Snow Joe

customer service center at
1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563) for assistance.
• 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.
