Servicing of Double Insulated Appliances
Your Blower/Vac is double-insulated to give you added safety. 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 qualified service
personnel. 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 insulated or "double insulation". The symbol
(square within a square) may also be marked on the appliance.
Safety Rules and Instructions: Extension Cords
Double insulated tools have 2-wire cords and can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round
jacketed extension cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by Underwriters Laboratories
(U.L.) (C.S.A. in Canada). If the extension will be used outside, the cord must be suitable for outdoor use. Any
cord marked as outdoor can also be used for indoor work.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety, and to prevent
loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the
cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up
the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. Before using an
extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires, damaged insulation, and defective fittings. Make any
needed repairs or replace the cord if necessary.
To determine the minimum wire size required, refer to the chart below:
