DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulationisa concept insafety in electricpower
tools, which eliminates the need for the usualthres-wlre
groundedpower cord. AJiexposedmetal partsare
isolatedfrom the internalmetal motor componentswith
protectinginsulation.Double insulatedtools do not need
to be grounded.
WARNING: The double insulated systemis
intendedto pmteot the userfrom shookresulting
from a break in the tool's internalinsulation.Observe
