DOUBLE INSULATION
CONSTRUCTION
This unit is double insulated to help
protect against electric s hock. Double
insulation construction consists of two
separate “layers” of electrical i nsula-
tion instead of grounding.
Tools and appliances built with a
double insulation system are not in-
tended to be grounded. No grounding
means is provided on this unit, nor
should a means of grounding be add-
ed to this unit. As a result, the exten-
sion cord used with your unit can be
plugged into any standard 120 volt
electrical outlet. Safety precautions
must be observed when operating any
electrical tool. The double insulation
system only provides added protection
against injury resulting from an internal
electrical insulation failure.
WARNING:
All electrical repairs to
this unit, including housing, switch, mo-
tor, etc., must be diagnosed and re-
paired by qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts for a double insu-
lated appliance must be identical to the
parts they replace. 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 ap-
pliance. Failure to have the unit repaired
by Sears service personnel can c ause
the double insulation construction to be-
come ineffective andresult in serious in-
jury.
