RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible dangers. The safety symbols, and the
explanations with them, deserve your careful attention and understanding. The safety warnings do not by
themselves eliminate any danger. The instructions or warnings they give are not substitutes for proper
accident prevention measures.
SYMBOL MEANING
SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL:
Indicates caution, warning, or danger. May be used in conjunction with other symbols or pictographs.
DANGER: Failure to obey a safety warning will result in serious injury to yourself or to others. Always
follow the safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury.
WARNING: Failure to obey a safety warning can result in serious injury to yourself or to others. Always
follow the safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury.
CAUTION: Failure to obey a safety warning may result in property damage or personal injury to
yourself or to others. Always follow the safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and
personal injury.
NOTE: Advises you of information or instructions vital to the operation or maintenance of the equipment.
DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety, in electric power
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire
grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated
from internal metal motor components with protecting
insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
IMPORTANT
Servicing requires extreme care and knowledge and should
be performed only by a qualified service technician. For
service we suggest you return the tool to your nearest
RYOBI FACTORY or AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER
for repair. When servicing, use only identical Ryobi replace-
ment parts.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is intended to protect
the user from shock resulting from a break in the
tool's internal wiring. Observe all normal safety
precautions related to avoiding electrical shock.
