DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric
products, which eliminates the need for the usual three-
wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts
are isolated from energized internal components with
protecting insulation.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is
intended to protect the user from shock resulting
from a break in the product’s internal wiring. Observe
all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical
shock.
NOTE: Servicing of a product with double insulation
requires extreme care and knowledge of the system
and should be performed only by a qualified service
technician. For service, we suggest you return the product
to your nearest authorized service center for repair. Always
use original factory replacement parts when servicing.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product should be connected to a
power supply
that is 120 volts, AC only (normal household current),
60 Hz. Do not operate this product on direct current (DC)
through the power cord. If the product does not operate
when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power
supply.
EXTENSION CORDS
When using a product at a considerable distance from
a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that
has the capacity to handle the current the product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage, resulting in overheating and loss of power. Use
the chart to determine the minimum wire size required in
an extension cord. Only round jacketed cords listed by
Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL) should be used.
When using this product outdoors, use an extension
cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is
designated with “WA” or “W” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.

WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the
working area. Position the cord so that it will not get
caught on lumber, tools, or other obstructions while
you are working with this product. Failure to do so
can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each
use. If damaged replace immediately. Never use a
product with a damaged cord since touching the
damaged area could cause electrical shock resulting
in serious injury.
