Pre-Start Checklist; Starting, Operation & Stopping (Recoil Start Models) - Snapper E11305 Safety Instructions & Operator's Manual

Section 2 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 PRE-START CHECK LIST
2.1.9. Check the AC electrical outlet that will be
used and make sure it is a polarized outlet. The
machine has a polarized plug (one blade of plug is
wider than the other) that will accept a polarized
extension cord. The extension cord will fit into a
polarized outlet (receptacle) only one way. If plug
does not fit fully into your outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install a proper polarized outlet. DO NOT modify or
change this polarized plug in any way.
