27. Double Insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double Insulation eliminates

Additional safety rules for Oscillating Tools

WARNING: Always wear eye protection.
Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where
the cutting tools may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed
metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. Do not drill, fasten or break into existing walls
or other blind areas where electrical wiring may exist. If this situation is unavoidable, disconnect all
fuses or circuit breakers feeding this worksite.
Use a metal detector to determine if there are gas or water pipes hidden in the work area
or call the local utility company for assistance before beginning the operation.
Striking or cutting into a gas line will result in explosion. Water entering an electrical device may
cause electrocution.
Always hold the tool firmly with both hands for maximum control. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Do not reach under the material being cut. The
proximity of the blade to your hand is hidden from your sight.
Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent blade can break easily or cause kickback.
Exercise extreme caution when handling the accessories. The accessories are very sharp.
