• The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The symbols and their
definitions are as follows:
V ..................volts
Hz ................hertz
min ..............minutes
or DC ...direct current
................Class I Construction
(grounded)
................Class II Construction
(double insulated)
bpm ............. beats per minute
protection
............Read instruction manual before use
................Use proper hearing protection
• 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.
The table shows the correct
size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
A ...................amperes
W ..................watts
or AC .......alternating current
n o .................no load speed
.................earthing terminal
................safety alert symbol
.../min or rpm...revolutions or
