in this manual.
CAUTION: Wear appropriate personal hearing protection during
use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this
product may contribute to hearing loss.
DON'T ABUSE CORD: Never carry this product by cord or yank it
to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp
edges.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY - All visitors, children and pets should
stay at a safe distance from the work area.
DRESS PROPERLY – Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair. They can be caught in
moving parts. Use of rubber gloves and substantial footwear is
recommended when working outdoors.
USE SAFETY GLASSES –Wear safety glasses with side shields or
goggles that are marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 standard when
operating this product. Use face or dust mask if environment is dusty.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) protection
should be provided on the circuit( s) to be used. Receptacles are
available having built-in GFCI protection and may be used.
EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be sure it is heavy enough
to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized extension
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the
heavier the cord.

WARNING: Use out door extension cords marked SW-A, SOW-A,
STW-A, SJW-A, or SJTW-A. These cords are rated for outdoor use
and reduce the risk of electric shock.
DOUBLE INSULATION—Double Insulation is a concept in safety in
electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-
wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from
the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.
Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
NOTE: The double insulated system is intended to protect the user
from shock resulting from a break in the tool's internal insulation.
Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical shock.
It is possible to tie the extension cord and power cord
in a knot to prevent them from becoming disconnected
during use. Make the knot as shown, then connect the
plug end of the power cord into the receptacle end of
the extension cord,. This method can also be used to
tie two extension cords together.
POLARIZED PLUGS—To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This equipment must be used with a suitable polarized 2 wire or 3
wire extension cord. Polarized connections will fit together only one
way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the extension cord has
large and small blade slot widths. If the plug does not fit fully into the
extension cord, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, obtain a
suitable extension cord. If the extension cord does not fit fully into
the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not change the tool plug or extension cord in any way.
