SAFETY NOTICE: Exposure to vibra- tions through prolonged use of hand tools could cause blood vessel or nerve damage in the fingers, hands, and joints of people prone to circulation disorders or abnormal swelling. Prolonged use in cold weather has been linked to blood vessel damage in otherwise healthy people. If symptoms occur such as numbness, pain, loss of strength, change in skin color or texture, or loss of feeling in the fingers, hands, or joints, discontinue the use of this tool and seek medical attention. An anti-vibration sys- tem does not guarantee the avoidance of these problems. Users who operate power tools on a continual and regular basis must closely monitor their physical condition and the condition of this tool.

DOUBLE INSULATION

CONSTRUCTION

This unit is double insulated to help pro- tect against electric shock. Double insula- tion construction consists of two separate “layers” of electrical insulation instead of grounding.

Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. No ground- ing means is provided on this unit, nor should a means of grounding be added to this unit. As a result, the extension cord used with this unit can be plugged into any polarized 120 volt electrical outlet.

Safety precautions must be observed when operating any electrical tool. The

double insulation system only provides added protection against injury resulting from an internal electrical insulation fail- ure.

WARNING: All electrical repairs to this unit, including housing, switch, mo- tor, etc., must be diagnosed and re- paired by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double insu- lated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace. A double insulated appliance is marked with the words “double insulation” or “double insu- lated”. The symbol (square within a square) may also be marked on the ap- pliance. Failure to have the unit repaired by authorized service personnel can cause the double insulation construc- tion to become ineffective and result in serious injury.

STANDARDS: This product is listed by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. in accor- dance with UL Standard 1662 and CSA Standards Z62.1 and Z62.3 and ANSI B175.1.
