FOR YOUR SAFETY - ALL TOOLS
WARNING: When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury,
including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
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 concern for main-
taining 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.
CAUTION: WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT
PARTS. Repair or replace damaged cords.
