DOUBLE INSULATION
AN IMPORTANT CONSUMER FEATURE
Your tool is double insulated to give you added safety.
This means that it is constructed throughout with two
separate "layers" of electrical insulation or one double
thickness of insulation between you and the tool's
electrical system.
Note: Double insulation does not take the place of
normal safety precautions when operating this tool.
The insulation system is for added protection against
injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation
failure within the tool.
Caution: When servicing double insulated
tools, USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACE-
MENT PARTS. Replace or repair damaged
cords.

EXTENSION CORDS

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. The following table
shows the correct size to use depending on cord length
and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier
the cord.

damage in the tool.
Edging Procedure
Caution: Inspect area to be trimmed for any
wire, cord, or string-like matter which could
become entangled in the rotating line or
spool. Be particularly careful to avoid any wire
which might be bent outwardly into the path
of the tool, such as barbs at the base of a
chain link fence.
