Double Insulation Construction - Weed Eater 530086306 Operator's Manual

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, mo-
tor, etc., must be diagnosed and re-
paired by qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts for a double insu-
lated 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 re-
paired by qualified service personnel
can cause the double insulation
construction to become ineffective and
result in serious injury.

ATTACHING THE SHIELD
WARNING:
The shield must be

partial protection from the risk of thrown
objects to the operator and others. Your
unit is equipped with a line limiter blade,
which cuts excess line to the proper
length while running. The line limiter
blade (on underside of shield) is sharp
and can cut you.
NOTE: If shield is not properly installed,
damage to unit (including motor failure)
will result.
S Align the installation arrow on the
shield with the installation arrow on
the motor housing (see illustration be-
low).
S Insert the shield onto the motor hous-
ing. Ensure the cutting head remains
free to rotate and the line is not caught
between the shield and the motor
housing.
S Twist the shield as illustrated until it
snaps securely into place. Make sure
the shield is assembled to the unit as
shown in the illustration below.
