still does not fit, contact a qualified electri-
cian to install the proper wall outlet. Do not
change the equipment plug, extension
cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in
any way .
S To reduce the risk of electrical shock, use
extension cords specifically marked as
suitable for outdoor appliances. The elec-
trical rating of the cord must not be less
than the rating of the unit. The cord must
be marked with the suf fix “W-A” (in Cana-
da, “W”). Make sure your extension cord
is in good condition. Inspect extension
cord before use and replace if damaged.
An undersized extension cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number , the heavier the cord.
(NOTE: The correct size to be used de-
pending on the cord length is shown in
this manual. See
SELECT AN EXTENSION
CORD
in the ASSEM BLY secti on) .
S Do not use multiple cords.
S Keep the extension cord clear of operator
and obstacles at all times.
S Tie cord to cord retainer and connect to
recessed plug as shown in this manual to
prevent damage to unit and/or extension
cordandtoreducethepossibilityofthe
extension cord disconnecting from the
unit during operation.
S Do not attempt to repair unit. Inspect the
insulation and connectors on the unit
and extension cord before each use. If
there is any damage, do not use until
damage is repaired by your authorized
service dealer.
S Do not use the unit if the switch does not
turn the unit on and off properly. Have the
unit repaired by your authorized service
dealer.
S Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the
switch is in the
OFF position and keep
your hand and fingers away from the
switch while connecting the unit to the
power source or when carrying a unit con-
nected to the power source.
S Avoid any body contact with any
grounded con ductor, such as metal
fences, or pipes, to avoid the possibility of
electric shock.
S Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
protection should be provided on the cir-
cuit or outlet to be used for this unit. Re-
ceptacles are available having built-in
GFCI protection and may be used for this
measure of safety.
S Stop the motor immediately if you are ap-
proached.
DOUBLE INSULATION
CONSTRUCTION
This unit is double insulated to help pro-
tect against electric shock. Double insula-
ti on construction consists of t wo separate
“l ayers” of electr i cal insulati on instead of
grounding. Tools and appliances built with
a double insul ation system are not in-
tended to be grounded. No grounding
means is provided on this unit, nor should
a means of ground ing be added to this
unit. As a result , the extension cord used
wit h your unit can be plugged i nto any
standard 120 volt electri cal outlet. Saf ety
precauti ons must be observed when op-
erati ng any electr ical tool . The double in-
sula t ion system only prov i d es added pro-
tecti on against injury resulting fr om an
internal electrical insulation failure.
WARNING:
All electrical repai r s to thi s unit , includi ng
housing, switch, motor, etc., must be diag-
nosed and repaired by qualifi ed service
personnel. Replacement par t s for a
double insulated appliance must be iden-
tical to the par ts they repl a ce . A double in-
sulated appliance is marked with the
words “double insulation” or “double insu-
lated” . The symbol
(square wit hi n a
square) may also be marked on the ap-
pliance. Failure to have the unit repair ed
by an authorized service dealer can
cause the double insulation construct i on
to become ineffecti ve and result in serious
injury.
UNIT/MAINTEN ANCE SAFETY
S Do not set the unit on any surface except
a clean, hard area while the unit is run-
ning. Debris such as gravel, sand, dust,
grass, etc., could be picked up by the air
intake and thrown out through the dis-
charge opening, damaging the unit, prop-
erty, or causing serious injury to bystand-
ers or operato r.
S Do not overreach or use from unstable
surfaces such as ladders, trees, steep
slopes, rooftops, etc. Use extra care
when cleaning on stairways. Keep firm
footing and balance at all times. Keep
hands out of tubes.
S Inspect the entire unit before each use for
worn, loose, missing, or damaged parts.
Do not use until the unit is in proper work-
ing order.
S This unit is double insulated. See the
DOUBLE INSUL ATION CONSTR UCT ION
section. Have all internal service per-
formed by qualified service repair person-
nel to avoid creating a hazard or voiding
your warranty.
