ELECTRICAL
DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three
wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are
isolated from the internal metal motor components with
protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need
to be grounded.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is intended to
protect the user from shock resulting from a
break in the tool's internal insulation. Observe
all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical
shock.
NOTE: Servicing of a product with double insulation
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
product to your nearest authorized service center for
repair. Always use original factory replacement parts
when servicing.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should
