DOUBLE INSULATION

CONSTRUCTION

This unit is double insulated to help pro-

tect against electric shock. Double in- sulation 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 grounding means is provided on this unit, nor should a means of grounding be added to this unit. As a result, the ex- tension cord used with your unit can be plugged into any standard 120 volt elec- trical outlet.

Safety precautions must be observed when operating any electrical tool. The double insulation system only provides added protection against injury result-

ing from an internal electrical insulation failure.

,_WARNING: All electrical repairs

to this unit, including housing, switch, motor, locking sleeve assembly, wires, etc., must be diagnosed and repaired by qualified service personnel. Re- placement parts for a double insulated

appliance must be recommended by the manufacturer. 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 appliance. Failure to have the unit

repaired by qualified service person- nel can cause the double insulation

construction to become ineffective and result in serious injury.
