To reduce the risk of electric shock, this tool 
has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than 
the other) and will require the use of a 
polarized extension cord. The 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 equipment plug, 
extension cord receptacle, or extension cord 
plug in any way.
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.
Avoid Dangerous Environments - Don’t e
xpose power tools to rain or wet conditions. 
Waterentering a power tool will increase the 
risk of electric shock.

protection should be provided on the circuit (s) 
or outlet(s) to be used for the gardening 
appliance. Receptacles are available having 
built-in GFCI protection and may be used for 
this measure of safety.

the correct tool for your application. The 
correct tool will do the job better and safer at

protect your feet and improve your footing on
slippery surfaces.
