ing fuel cap.
• Remove fuel cap slowly.
ELECTRICAL
SAFETY
(for
electric
powerheads)
WARNING:
Avoid a dangerous envi-
ronment,
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
do not use in rain, in damp or wet locations, or
around swimming
pools, hot tubs, etc,
Do not
expose to snow, rain, or water to avoid the pos-
sibility of electrical shock,
Do not use on wet
surfaces, Do not handle extension cord plug or
unit with wet hands,
• Use only a voltage supply as shown on the
nameplate
of the unit.
• Avoid dangerous
situations.
Do not use in
presence
of flammable
liquids or gases to
avoid
creating
a fire or explosion
and/or
caush_g damage
to unit,
• Avoid dangerous
environments,
Do not use
in unventilated
areas or where dust or ex-
plosive
vapors can build up.
• To reduce
the risk of electric
shock,
the
powerhead
may have a polarized
plug (one
blade is wider than the other); if so, it wilt re-
quire the use of a polarized
extension
cord.
The appliance
plug will fit into a polarized
extension
cord only one way,
if the plug
does notfit fully into the extension
cord, re-
verse the plug.
If the plug still does not fit,
obtain a correct
polarized
extension
cord,
A polarized
extension
cord wilt require the
use of a polarized wall outlet,
This plug will
fit into the polarized
wail outlet
only one
way.
If plug does not fit fully into the wall
outIet, reverse the plug, if it stilt does not fit,
contact
a qualified
electrician
to install the
proper wall outlet, Do not change the equip-
ment
plug, extension
cord
receptacle,
or
extension
cord plug in any way.
• To reduce
risk of electrical
shock,
use ex-
tension
cords
specifically
marked
as suit-
able for outdoor appliances
having electri-
cal rating not less than the rating of unit.
Cord must be marked with suffix "W-A"
(in
Canada
"W').
Make sure
your
extension
cord is in good condition,
inspect extension
cord before use and replace
if damaged.
Do
not use a damaged
cord.
Cord insulation
must be intact with no cracks
or deteriora-
tion. Plug connectors
must be undamaged.
The extension
cord used to reach the pow-
er source
must be heavy enough to carry
current from the power source the full length
of the extension cord to the unit. An under-
sized extension
cord will cause a drop in
line voltage
resulting
in loss of power and
overheating.
Ifindoubt,
use the next heavi-
er gauge. The lower the gauge number, the
heavier
the cord.
• Do not use multiple cords.
• Do not abuse cord. Never carry the unit by
the extension
cord or yank extension
cord
to disconnect
unit. To unplug,
grasp
the
plug, not the cord. Do not use cord as a han-
dle,
close
a door on
cord,
or pull cord
around sharp edges or corners.
Do not ex-
pose cords to heat, oil, or water.
• Keep the extension cord clear of operator and
obstacles at all times.
• Tie cord to cord retainer and connect to re-
cessed plug as shown in this manual to pre-
vent damage
to unit and/or extension
cord
and to reduce
the possibility
of the exten-
sion cord disconnecting
from the unit during
operation.
• Do not attempt to repair unit. inspect the insu-
lation and connectors
on the powerhead
and
extension
cord before each use. If there is
any damage, do not use until damage is re-
paired by your authorized service dealer.
• Do not use the powerhead
if the switch
does not turn the unit on and off properly.
Have the unit repaired
by your authorized
service
dealer.
• Do not use with damaged
cord or plug.
If
powerhead
is not working
as it should, has
been dropped,
damaged,
left outdoors,
or
dropped
into water,
return it to your autho-
rized service dealer for repair.
• Avoid unintentional
starting ofthe unit. Nev-
er carry unit with your finger on the switch.
Be sure the switch
is in the OFF position
and never touch the switch when connect-
ing extension
cord.
• Unplug the unit from the power source when
not in use, before servicing, and when chang-
ing accessories
and/or attachments.
• Avoid any body contact with any grounded
conductor,
such as metal fences,
or pipes,
to avoid the possibility
of electric shock.
• Ground
Fault
Circuit
Interrupter
(GFCI)
protection
should
be provided
on the circuit
or outlet to be used for the powerhead.
Re-
ceptacles
are
availaMe
having
built-in
GFCI protection
and may be used for this
