DOUBLE iNSULATION CONSTRUCTION
This unit is Double Insulated to help
protect against
electric shock. Double
insulation
construction
consists of two
separate "layers" of electrical
insula-
tion instead of grounding.
Tools and appliances
built with a
double insulation
system are not in-
tended to be grounded.
No grounding
means is provided on this unit. nor
should a means of grounding
be add-
ed to this unit. As a result, the exten-
sion cord used with your unit can be
plugged into any standard
120 volt
electrical
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.
