WARNING:

Keep the extension cord clear of the working area.

Position the cord so that it will not get caught on

lumber, tools, or other obstructions while you are working

with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious

personal injury.

WARNING:

Check extension cords before each use. If damaged

replace immediately. Never use the product with a

damaged cord since touching the damaged area could

cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER

See Figure 1, page 15.

This unit is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter

(GFCI), which guards against the hazards of ground fault

currents. An example of ground fault current is the current

that would flow through a person who is using an appliance

with faulty insulation and, at the same time, is in contact

with an electrical ground such as a plumbing fixture, wet

floor, or earth.

GFCI plugs do not protect against short circuits, overloads,

or shocks.

NOTE: The GFCI plug provided will “open” each time that

it is disconnected from the AC wall receptacle. To ensure

readiness for use, press the reset button each time you con-

nect the tool to the power supply.

The GFCI plug can be tested with the TEST and RESET

buttons.

To test:

Depress the TEST button. This should cause the RESET

button to pop out.

To restore power, depress the RESET button.

Perform this test monthly to ensure proper operation of the

GFCI.

WARNING:

Do not operate tool without GFCI intact. Do not replace

cord in order to bypass the GFCI. If the cord is damaged,

do not use the product, take the product to an authorized

service center for repair. Failure to do so can result in serious

personal injury.

ELECTRICAL

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power

tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-

wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are

isolated from the internal metal motor components with

protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need

to be grounded.

WARNING:

The double insulated system is intended to protect

the user from shock resulting from a break in the tool’s

internal insulation. Observe all normal safety precautions

to avoid electrical shock.

NOTE: Servicing of a product with double insulation requires

extreme care and knowledge of the system and should

be performed only by a qualified service technician. For

service, we suggest you return the product to your near-

est authorized service center for repair. Always use original

factory replacement parts when servicing.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should

be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts (AC only

normal household current), 60 Hz. Do not operate this

product on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop

will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If

the product does not operate when plugged into an outlet,

double-check the power supply.

EXTENSION CORDS

When using a power tool at a considerable distance from

a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has

the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An

undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in

overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine

the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only

round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories

(UL) should be used.

When working outdoors with a product , use an extension

cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is

designated with “WA” or “W” on the cord’s jacket.

Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or

exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
