Double insulated Tools
Double Insulation is a design concept used in elec tric
power tools which eliminates the need for the three wire
grounded pow er cord and grounded power supply system. It is
a recog nized and approved system by Underwriter’s Lab -
oratories, CSA and Federal OSHA authorities.
impoRTANT: Servicing of a tool with double insulation re -
quires care and knowledge of the system and should be
performed only by a qualified service technician.
WHEN SERVICING, USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACE -
MENT PARTS.
POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
your tool is equipped with a po lar ized plug (one blade is wider
than the other), this plug will 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 to install the
proper outlet. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
change the plug in any way.
extension cords
Replace damaged cords immediately. Use of damaged
cords can shock, burn or elec trocute.
Always use proper extension cord. If an extension cord is
necessary, a cord with adequate size con ductors should be
used to prevent excessive voltage drop, loss of power or over -
heating. The table shows the correct size to use, de pending
on cord length and nameplate amperage rating of tool. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge. Always use U.L. and CSA
listed extension cords.
