shock in the event of a malfunction. Contact a quali-
fied electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the
receptacle is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the shredder.
3.
INSPECT UNIT FOR DAMAGE to the housing, cord
or plug. Keep all fasteners tight. Do not use if the
switch does not turn the unit off properly. Never use
unit if cord or plug has been damaged, the motor or
unit itself is not working as it should or has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors or dropped in
water. Never operate with any air opening blocked.
Keep air openings free of debris that may reduce air
flow. Replace damaged parts that are chipped,
cracked or damaged in any way. This product is dou-
ble insulated - there are no serviceable parts inside.

grounded while in use to reduce the risk of electric
shock to the operator. The tool is equipped with a 3-
conductor cord and 3-prong grounding plug to fit the
proper grounding receptacle. If your unit is for use on
less than 150 volts, it has a plug as illustrated in
sketch A in Figure 1-1A. If it is for use on 150 to 250
volts, it has a plug as illustrated in sketch D, Fig.1-1A
An adapter, sketches B and C, is available for con-

quate size must be used for safety and to prevent loss
of power and overheating.
• The extension cord must be specifically intended for
outdoor use and marked "SJ" or "SJT" and with the
suffix "WA". In Canada, the extension cord must be
marked "SFTW".
• Inspect extension power cord for loose or exposed
wires and damaged insulation. If damaged, replace
