USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. 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:
Avoid electrical shock hazard. Never use this tool with a damaged or frayed electrical cord or extension cord.
Inspect all electrical cords regularly. Never use in or near water or in any environment where electric shock
is possible.
DOUBLE INSULATION FOR SAFER OPERATION
To ensure safer operation of this power tool, metabo HPT has adopted a double insulation design. "Double insulation" means that two physically
separated insulation systems have been used to insulate the electrically conductive materials connected to the power supply from the outer
frame handled by the operator. Therefore, either the symbol "
nameplate.
Although this system has no external grounding, you must still follow the normal electrical safety precautions given in this Instruction Manual,
including not using the power tool in wet environments.
To keep the double insulation system eff ective, follow these precautions:
* Only metabo HPT AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER should disassemble or assemble this power tool, and only genuine metabo HPT
replacement parts should be installed.
* Clean the exterior of the power tool only with a soft cloth moistened with soapy water and dry thoroughly.
* Never use solvents, gasoline or thinners on plastic components; otherwise the plastic may dissolve.
