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: 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.
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses.
Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust
mask if 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:
To reduce the risk of electrical shock; do
not expose to rain. Store indoors.
WARNING:
Cut Hazard. Turn off and unplug unit,
then wait until fan stops or at least 10 seconds before

Servicing of Double Insulated Appliances
A double-insulated appliance is marked with one or more of
the following: The words "DOUBLE INSULATION" or "DOUBLE
INSULATED" or the double insulation symbol .
Your Blower/Vac is double-insulated to give you added safety.
In a double insulated appliance, two systems of insulation
are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is
provided on a double insulated appliance, nor should a means
for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a double
insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge
of the system and should be done only by qualified service
personnel. Replacement parts for a double insulated appliance
must be identical to the parts they replace. A double insulated
appliance is marked with the words double insulated or
“double insulation”. The symbol (square within a square) may
also be marked on the appliance.
Safety Rules and Instructions:
Extension Cords
Double insulated tools have 2-wire cords and can be used
with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round jacketed
extension cords should be used, and we recommend that
they be listed by Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.) (C.S.A. in
Canada). If the extension will be used outside, the cord must
be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked as outdoor
can also be used for indoor work.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or
American Wire Gauge) for safety, and to prevent loss of
power and overheating. 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. When using more
than one extension to make up the total length, be sure
each individual extension contains at least the minimum
wire size. Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose
or exposed wires, damaged insulation, and defective fittings.
Make any needed repairs or replace the cord if necessary.

Safety Rules and Instructions:
Polarized Plug
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This
equipment must be used with a suitable polarized 2 wire or
3 wire extension cord. Polarized connections will fit together
only one way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the
extension cord has large and small blade slot widths. If the
plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, obtain a suitable extension cord. If
the extension cord does not fit fully into the outlet, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change
the tool plug or extension cord in any way.
