left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a
service center.
• DO NOT pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, or pull
cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep cord away from
heated surfaces.
• DO NOT unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the
plug, not the cord.
• Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
• Turn off all controls before unplugging.
• This appliance is provided with double insulation. Use only
identical replacement parts. See instructions for Servicing
of Double-Insulated Appliances.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only with an
extension cord intended for outdoor use, such as SJW
or SJTW.
• Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and
is the correct size for your appliance. The Minimum
Gauge for Cord Sets chart below 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. An undersized
extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating
• Maintain Appliance With Care – Inspect extension cords
periodically and replace if damaged.
• To reduce the risk of disconnection of appliance cord from
the extension cord during operating:
a ) Make a knot as shown in below; OR
b ) Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining straps or
connectors described in this manual; OR
c ) Secure the extension cord to the appliance plug as
shown or described in the Operating Instructions.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury due to
a loose electrical connection between the appliance's
plug and extension cord, firmly and fully attach the
appliance plug to the extension cord. Periodically
check the connection while operating to ensure it
is fully attached. Do not use an extension cord that
provides a loose connection. A loose connection may
result in overheating, fire, and increases the risk of
a burning.

WARNING: Do not use appliance if the switch trigger
does not turn the appliance on or off. Any appliance
that can not be controlled with the switch trigger is
dangerous and must be repaired.

WARNING: Some dust created by this product
contains chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• compounds in fertilizers
• compounds in insecticides, herbicides
and pesticides
• arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, wear approved
safety equipment such as dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.

Additional Safety Information


WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/
or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles
away from face and body.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
during use. Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearing loss.
Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
•
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
Safety Rules and Instructions:
Extension Cords

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, use
only with an extension cord intended for outdoor
use, such as an extension cord of cord type SW-A,
SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A. or
SJTOW-A.
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. 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. If the extension
will be used outside, the cord must be suitable for outdoor
work. The letters "WA" on the cord jacket indicate that the
cord is suitable for outdoor use.
• An extension cord must have adequate wire size
(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller
the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity
of the cable, that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18
gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using
more than one extension to make up the total length,
be sure each individual extension contains at least the
minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct
