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.
