tection should be provided on the circuit or outlet to be
used for the machine. Receptacles are available having
built-in GFCI protection and may be used.
2. DISCONNECT UNIT from the power supply when not
in use or when servicing or cleaning. Do not leave unat-
tended.
3. DON’T ABUSE CORD - Never carry this product by the
cord or yank the cord to disconnect from the receptacle.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

7. STORE IDLE UNIT INDOORS - When not in use, the
dethatcher / scarifier should be stored indoors in a dry
area out of children’s reach.
8. MAINTAIN UNIT WITH CARE - Keep clean for best
performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Inspect ex-
tension cord periodically and replace if damaged. Keep
handles dry, clean and free from oil.
9. POLARIZED PLUGS - To reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock, this product has a polarized plug. Polar-
ized 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 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
plug on the tool or the extension cord in any way.

turn it off immediately, wait for the tines to stop, and

mally, turn it off immediately and check for the cause.
