AL-KO 18V Cordless Leaf Blower User Guide

Quick guide from the manual

This document provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation of the AL-KO 18V Cordless Leaf Blower. Always ensure the device is fully assembled before use and only use the specified lithium-ion batteries and chargers.

Assembly

The leaf blower must be fully assembled before operation:

1. Align the upper blowing tube with the lower blowing tube so the cam and hole are aligned. Push them together until the cam clicks into place.
2. Align the assembled blowing tube with the blower fitting, ensuring the longitudinal groove and cam are aligned. Push the tube onto the fitting until it stops, then turn it 90° until the cam engages.

Operation

Before starting, ensure a secure footing. Press the ON/OFF switch to start the blower. To increase speed, press and hold the Turbo button; release it to return to normal speed. Release the ON/OFF switch to turn the device off.

Battery and Charging

Insert the battery from above onto the battery rail until it clicks into place. To remove, press and hold the unlock button on the battery and pull it out. Check the charge status using the indicator on the control panel (3 segments = full, 1 segment flashing = almost empty).

Maintenance and Care

Remove the battery after each use and check for damage. Keep the device clean and dry. Do not spray with water. Regularly check electrical contacts for corrosion and clean with a fine wire brush if necessary, applying contact spray if needed.

Troubleshooting

If the device does not blow, check for blockages in the attachment or intake grille. If the motor does not start, ensure the battery is charged and correctly inserted, or allow it to cool down/warm up if it is outside the operating temperature range.
