DOUBLE INSULATION CONSTRUC-
TION
This unit is double insulated to help
protect against electric shock. Double insulation construction consists of two
separate 'layers" of electrical insula- tion instead of grounding.
Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. No
grounding 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 your 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 in-
ury resulting from an internal electrical insu at on failure.
_WARNING: | All electrical repairs |
to this unit, including housing, switch, motor, etc., must be diagnosed and repaired by qualified service person- nel. Replacement parts for a double insulated appliance must be recom- mended by the manufacturer. A double insulated appliance is marked with the words "double insulation" or "double insulated." The symbol
(square within a square) [] may also be marked on the appliance. Failure
to have the unit repaired by qualified service personnel can cause the double insulation construction to be- come ineffective and result in serious
injury.
