Warning! When using electric tools, basic
safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and personal
injury, including the following:
Safety warnings: double insulation
Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two
separate layers of electrical insulation or one double
thickness of insulation between you and the tool's electrical
system. Tools built with this insulation system are not
intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped
with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension
cords without concern for maintaining a ground connection.
Note: Double insulation does not take the place of normal
safety precautions when operating this tool. The insulation
system is for added protection against injury resulting from a
possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.
Warning: When servicing all tools, use
identical replacement parts. repair or replace
damaged cords.
Safety instructions: polarized plugs
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a
polarized 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 into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the proper utlet. Do
not change the plug in any way.
Warning: Failure to heed these warnings may
result in personal injury and serious damage to
the saw.
