ELECTRICAL SAFETY WARNINGS

• Since the tool is double-insulated, a 2-wire extension cord (an extension cord without a ground) may be used. A 3-wire extension cord (an extension cord with a ground) that uses a NEMA type connector (parallel blade, U ground) is recommended. Extension cords are available from your local retailer. Use only round- jacketed extension cords approved for outdoor use.

• This tool is double-insulated. Repair or replace damaged cords.

• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this unit has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This unit will fit with a polarized plug in one way only. If the plug does not fit fully into the unit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, use a cord with the correct connection. Do not modify the unit in any way. *The wire size (AWG) for appliances using 12 to 16 amps is 14 AWG for 25 feet, 12 AWG for 50 feet, and not recommended for 100 or 150 feet.

• CORD SETS: Make sure your cord set is in good condition, with a cord that is heavy enough to carry the current that your unit will draw. An undersized cord set will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of power, as well as overheating. The table shown above illustrates the correct size to use depending on the cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier size line gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. To prevent the cord from disconnecting from the unit, use the cord hook shown in the Operating Instructions.

DANGER: When using electric gardening

appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury. Carefully read and understand the entire operator's manual before using your unit. Pay close attention to the operating instructions and safety warnings.

When using the unit, you must follow the safety rules. Please read these instructions before operating the unit in order to ensure the safety of the operator and any bystanders.
