DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire
grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are
isolated from the internal metal motor components with
protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need
to be grounded.

WARNING:

The double insulated system is intended to protect
the user from shock resulting from a break in the
tool's internal wiring. Observe all normal safety pre-
cautions to avoid electrical shock.

Important:

  Servicing of a tool 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 tool to
your nearest authorized service center for repair. Always
use original factory replacement parts when servicing.

FEATURES

ELECTRIC MOTOR

Your tool has a precision built electric motor. 

It should

be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60
Hz, AC only (normal household current).

  Do not

operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial
voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will
overheat. If your tool does not operate when plugged
into an outlet, double-check the power supply.

SWITCH

The recriprocating saw has a conveniently located trigger
switch.

VARIABLE SPEED

The recriprocating saw has a variable speed dial designed
to allow operator control of speed and power limits.

TOOLLESS BLADE CHANGE SYSTEM

The toolless blade change system eliminates the need
for tools when changing the blade.

ERGONOMIC DESIGN

The design of this tool provides for easy handling. It is
designed for comfort and ease of grasp when operating
in different positions and at different angles.

WARNING:

Do not attempt to modify this tool or create accessories not recommended for use with this tool. Any such
