DOUBLE INSULATION FOR SAFER
OPERATION
To ensure safer operation of this power tool, metabo HPT
has adopted a double insulation design. "Double insulation"
means that two physically separated insulation systems
have been used to insulate the electrically conductive
materials connected to the power supply from the outer
frame handled by the operator. Therefore, either the symbol
"
" or the words "Double insulation" appear on the power
tool or on the nameplate.
Although this system has no external grounding, you
must still follow the normal electrical safety precautions
given in this Instruction Manual, including not using the
power tool in wet environments.
To keep the double insulation system eff ective, follow
these precautions:
○ Only metabo HPT AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER
should disassemble or assemble this power tool, and
only genuine metabo HPT replacement parts should
be installed.
○ Clean the exterior of the power tool only with a soft
cloth moistened with soapy water, and dry thoroughly.
Never use solvents, gasoline or thinners on plastic
components; otherwise the plastic may dissolve.
