2. Double insulation [] eliminates the need for the three-wire grounded power cord and
grounded power supply system. Applicable only to Class II (double-insulated) tools.
This tool is a double insulated tool.
J /_ WARNING: Double insulation DOES NOT take the place of normal safety J
precautions when operating this tool.

3. BEFORE plugging in the tool, BE SURE that the outlet voltage supplied is within the
voltage marked on the tool's data plate. DO NOT use "AC only" rated toolswith
a DC power supply.
4. AVOID body contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators.There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
5. DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions or use power tools in wet
or damp locations. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
6. INSPECT tool cords for damage. Have damaged tool c,ords repaired at a Sears
Service Center. BE SURE to stay constantly aware of the cord locationand keep it well
away from moving parts.
7. DO NOT abuse the cord. NEVER use the cord to carry the tool by or to pull the
plug from the outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords immediately.Damaged cords increase the riskof electric shock.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use a proper extension cord. ONLY use cords listed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
Other extension cords can cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of power and
overheating of tool. For thistool an AWG (American Wire Gauge) size of a least 14-gauge
is recommended for an extension cord of 25-ft. or less in length. Use 12-gauge for an
extension cordof 50-ft. Extension cords 100-ft. or longer are not recommended.
Remember, a smaller wire gauge size has greater capacity than a larger number
(14-gauge wire has more capacity than 16-gauge wire; 12-gauge wire has more capacity
than 14-gauge). When in doubt use the smaller number. When operating a power tool
outdoors, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or 'fiN". These cordsare rated for
outdoor use and reduce the riskof electric shock.
/_ CAUTION: Keep the extension cord clear of the working area.
Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools or other
obstructions while you are working with a power tool.
Z_ WARNING: Check extension cords before each use. If damaged replace
immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord since touching the damaged
area could cause electrical shock, resulting in serious injury.
