Double-insulated Appliance

In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are
provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on
a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding
be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-insulated appliance
requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be
done only by the qualified service personnel at your Authorized Toro
Service Dealer. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance
must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated
appliance is marked with the words "Double Insulation" or "Double
Insulated." The symbol (square within a square) may also be marked
on the appliance.
Storage
Store the trimmer and extension cord indoors in a cool dry location and
out of reach of children and animals.
NOTICE! Do not rest the trimmer on the guard, or it may warp and
interfere with the cutting line.
Note: Devices for retaining extension cords are commercially available.
