Double Insulated Tools
Tools marked with the words “Double Insulated” are equipped with a two prong plug.
These tools have a special insulation system that complies with applicable UL standards
. They do not require grounding. ”Double Insulated” tools, like this one, have
two prong cords and can use either a two or three prong extension cord.
“This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.”
Extension Cords
As the distance from the supply outlet
increases, heavier gauge extension cords
are required. The use of extension cords of
inadequate size wire causes a serious drop
in voltage and loss of power. Protect the cord
from damage. Keep cords away from exces-
sive heat, sharp edges and damp or wet
areas. Repair or replace damaged extension
cords before using.
