safety infOrMatiOn
 do noT expose vibrator motor to rain.
 do noT use vibrator motor in damp or wet locations
without proper electrical circuits.
 do noT immerse the motor part in concrete.
 alWayS keep clear of rotating or moving parts while
operating the vibrator motor.
 never leave the machine unattended while running.
 alWayS disconnect the motor from the power source
when not in use, before servicing, and when changing
fl exible shafting and vibrator heads.
 Allow the vibrator motor to cool before
servicing. Contact with hot components can
cause serious burns.
 Before each use, alWayS check the motor
to make certain that there are no damaged parts and that
all parts function properly (such as switch, cord housing).
If any damage or malfunctioning parts are found, have
them repaired or replaced by an authorized service facility.
NOTICE
 Secure forms. Make sure the form work is well made and
braced to withstand the stresses made by vibration.
 Keep vibrator motor clean for better and safer operation.
 alWayS store equipment properly when it is not being
used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location
out of the reach of children and unauthorized personnel.
 Use only factory-authorized replacement parts.
 Store idle vibrator motor. When not in use, motor should
be stored in a dry, safe storage area.

CauTion
 Power tools must match the outlet. never modify the plug
in any way. do noT use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodifi ed plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
 Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is
an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
 do noT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
 do noT abuse power cord. never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
 When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension
cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
 This unit is double-insulated. The double-insulation
between the electric-conducting part and the outside
frame makes grounding unnecessary. However, if parts
are replaced with wrong parts or assembled incorrectly,
the vibrator may become unsafe to operate. Use only
Multiquip recommended replacement parts.
 When applicable, use a protection wiring device, such
as a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter, for the protection
of personnel.
 Operate electric motor only at the specifi ed voltage
indicated on the nameplate.
 do noT spray water onto electric motor.
 do noT yank the cord to disconnect it from the
receptacle. Grasp the plug itself to disconnect it.
 alWayS make sure the ON/OFF switch on the electric
motor is in the OFF position when not in use and before
inserting the power plug into an AC receptacle.
 Before plugging the motor into a power source, alWayS
remove any wrenches or other tools from the motor,
shaft, and head that were used for assembly.
