The tool is double insulated. This means that all the external metal parts are electrically insulated from the
mains power supply. This is done by placing insulation barriers between the electrical and mechanical
components making it unnecessary for the tool to be earthed.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Be sure the supply is the same as the voltage given on the rating plate. The tool is fitted with a two-core cable
and plug.
Remove the mains plug from socket before carrying out any adjustment or servicing.
