SAFETY NOTICE: Exposure to vibra-
tions through prolonged use of hand
tools could cause blood vessel or
nerve damage in the fingers, hands,
and joints of people prone to
circulation disorders or abnormal
swelling. Prolonged use in cold weath-
er has been linked to blood vessel
damage in otherwise healthy people. If
symptoms occur such as numbness,
pain, loss of strength, change in skin
color or texture, or loss of feeling in the
fingers, hands, or joints, discontinue
the use of this tool and seek medical
attention. An anti-vibration system
does not guarantee the avoidance of
these problems. Users who operate
power tools on a continual and regular
basis must closely monitor their physi-
cal condition and the condition of this
tool.
DOUBLE INSULATION
CONSTRUCTION
This unit is double insulated to help
protect against electric shock. Double
insulation construction consists of two
separate “layers” of electrical insula-
tion instead of grounding.
Tools built with this insulation system
are not intended to be grounded. No
grounding means is provided on this
unit, nor should a means of grounding
be added to this unit. As a result, the
extension cord used with this unit can
be plugged into any standard120 volt
electrical outlet.
Safety precautions must be observed
when operating any electrical tool. The
double insulation system only provides
added protection against injury result-
ing from an internal electrical insulation
failure.
