Refer to the user guide with the link above. Make sure that the power is connected and ensure that the blower nozzle is connected properly. Without the nozzle fitted correctly the unit will not operate. This is a common cause of non operation as it is imperative that the nozzle is correctly fitted to make the power switch work.

Hope that helps.
