SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
When using electric garden-
ing appliances, basic safety precautions
must always be followed to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock, and serious injury, including
the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. FOR ALL DOUBLE-INSULATED
APPLIANCES
a) Replacement parts.
When servicing use
only identical replacement parts.
b) Polarized appliance connections.
To re-
duce the risk of electric shock, this appliance
has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other} and will require the use of a po-
larized extension cord. The appliance plug
will fit into a polarized extension cord only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the
extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug
still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized
extension cord. A polarized extension cord
will require the use of a polarized wall out-
let. This plug will fit into the polarized wall
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If
the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper wall outlet.
Do not change the equipment plug, exten-
sion cord receptacle, or extension cord plug
in any way.
2. FOR ALL APPLIANCES
a) Avoid dangerous environment.
Don’t
use appliances in damp or wet locations.
b) Don’t use in rain.
c) Keep children away.
All visitors should be
kept at a distance from work area.
d) Dress properly.
Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving
parts. Use of protective gloves and substan-
tial footwear is recommended when work-
ing outdoors. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair.
e) Use safety glasses.
Always use face or
dust mask if operation is dusty.
f) Use right appliance.
Do not use appliance for
any job except that for which it is intended.
g) Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
protection should be provided on the
circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for
the gardening appliance.
Receptacles
are available having built-in GFCI protection
and may be used for an added measure of
safety.
h ) WARNING!
To reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock, use only with an extension
cord intended for outdoor use, such as an
extension cord of cord type SW-A, SOW-A,
STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A.
or SJTOW-A.
i) Extension cord!
Make sure your exten-
sion cord is in good condition. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized extension cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss
of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length
and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gage. The smaller the
gage number, the heavier the cord. To re-
duce the risk of disconnection of appliance
cord from the extension cord during operat-
ing:
i) Make a knot as shown in Figure 2; or
ii) Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining straps
or connectors described in this manual.
