ELECTRICAL SAFETY
DOUBLE INSULATION TOOLS!
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 the polarized
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation
three wire grounded power cords and grounded power supply system.
1. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
2. Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
3. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use only outdoor rated extension cords marked
"W-A" or "W". These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
