breaker trips:
1. Disconnect the electrical loads from all receptacles.
2. Place the main circuit breaker (T) in the OFF position and then
back into the ON position to reset.
IMportant:
If the main breaker turns to the OFF position when no
electrical loads are connected, contact a D
e
WALT factory service cen-
ter or a D
