Electrical precautions
Special precautions for electric trimmers
must be observed to reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injury and property
damage from fire and electric shock.
Extension Cord: Make sure your
!
Warning!
extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure
to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An
undersized extension cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. The table below
shows the correct size to use depending
on cord length and nameplate ampere
raiting. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
The voltage of the power supply must
agree with the voltage specified on the
trimmer's machine label. Improper
voltage will damage the trimmer and
may cause personal injury.
Polarized Plugs: To reduce the risk of
electric shock, this trimmer has a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other and will require the use of a
polarized extension cord. The trimmer
plug will fit into a polarized extension
cord only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the extension cord, reverse the
plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a
correct polarized extension cord. A
polarized extension cord will require the
use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug
will fit into the polarized wall outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into
the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the
plug still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper wall
outlet. Do not change the trimmer plug,
extension cord receptacle, or extension
cord plug in any way.
