DOUBLE INSULATED LAWN MOWER
.DOUBLE INSULATION
IS A CONCEPT IN SAFETY IN ELECTRIC LAWN
MOWERS, WHICH ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR THE USUAL THREE WIRE
GROUNDED POWER CORD AND GROUNDED SUPPLY SYSTEM. WHEREV­
ER THERE IS ELECTRIC CURRENT IN THE MOWER, THERE ARE TWO
COMPLETE SETS OF INSULATION TO PROTECT THE USER, ALL EXPOSED
METAL PARTS ARE ISOLATED FROM THE INTERNAL METAL MOTOR
COMPONENTS WITH PROTECTING INSULATION.
IMPORTANT—
SERVICING OF A LAWN MOWER WITH DOUBLE INSULA­
TION REQUIRES EXTREME CARE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE SYSTEM AND
SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
FOR SERVICE WE SUGGEST YOU RETURN THE LAWN MOWER TO YOUR
NEAREST AUTHORIZED SERVICE DEALER FOR REPAIR. ALWAYS USE
ORIGINAL FACTORY REPLACEMENT PARTS WHEN SERVICING.
