DOUBLE INSULATION
(DNOTE: This symbol denotes Double
Insulation. Double insulated tools are
constructed throughout with two
separate layers of electrical insulation or
one double thickness of insulation
between you and the tool's electrical
system. Tools built with this insulation
system are not intended to be grounded.
As a result, your tool is equipped with a
two prong plug which permits you to use
extension cords without concem for
maintaining a ground connection.
NOTE: Double insulation does not take
the place of normal safety precautions
when operating this tool. The insulation
system is for added protection against
injury resulting from a possible electrical
insulation failure within the tool.
REPLACEMENT PARTS: When
servicing all tools, USE IDENTICAL
REPLACEMENT PARTS.
POLARIZED PLUGS
Repair or replace damaged cords.
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
3 wire outdoor 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.
