vironment . To reduce the risk of electri cal

shock, do not use in rai n, in damp or wet

locati ons, or around swimming pools, hot

tubs, etc. Do not expose to snow, rai n, or

water to avoid the possibility of electrical

shock. Do not handl e exten si o n cord or

plug with wet hands.

S Use a voltage supply as shown on the

nameplate of the unit.

S A void dangerous situ ati ons. Do not use

in the presence of flammable liquids or

gases to avoid creati ng a fire or explo-

sion and/ or causing damage to unit .

S To reduce the risk of electri cal shock,

this appliance has a polar ized plug (one

blade is wider than the other) and will re-

quir e the use of a polar i zed extension

cord. The appliance plug will fit into a po-

lari zed extension cord only one way. If

the plug does not fit fully into the exten-

sion cord, re verse the plug. If the plug

stil l does not fit , obtain a correct polar-

ized extension cord. A polarized exten-

sion cord wil l re quir e the use of a polar-

ized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the

polari zed wall outl et only one way. If

plug does not fit full y into the wall outl et,

reverse the plug. If the plug still does not

fit, contact a qualified electrician to install

the proper wall outlet. Do not change the

equipment plug, extension cord recep-

tacle, or extension cord plug in any way.

S To reduce risk of electri cal shock, use

extension cords specifi cal l y marked as

suitable for outdoor appliances. The

electr i cal rating of the cord must not be

less than the rating of the unit. The cord

must be marked with suf fi x “ W--A” (in

Canada, “ W”). Use a polar ized cord.

Make sure your extension cord is in

good condit ion. Inspect exten sion cord

before use and replace if damaged. Do

not use a damaged cord. Cord insula-

tion must be intact with no cracks or de-

teri or at i on. Plug connector s must be

undamaged. An undersi zed extension

cord will cause a drop in line voltage re-

sulti ng in loss of power and over he ati n g.

If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.

The lower the gauge number, the heavi-

er the cord (see

SELECT AN EXTENSION

CORD

in the OPERA TION sect i o n). Do

not use multiple cords.

S Do not abuse cord. Never c arry the

unit by the extension cord or yank ex-

tension cord to disconnect unit.

to the switch must be made by an

authorized s ervice dealer.

S Keep extension cord clear of operator

and obstacles at all times. Position

cord so that it will not be caught on

branches. Do not expos e cords to

heat, oil, water, or sharp edges .

S To avoid the possibility of electric shock,

avoid body conta ct with any grounded

conductor, such as metal fences or

pipes.

S Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter

(GFCI) protection s hould be provided

on circuit or outlet to be used. Recep-

tacles are available having built-in

GFCI protection and may be use d for

this measure of safety. Inspect chain
