MAINTENANCE cont.

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation is a concept in safety in eiectric power toois, which eiiminates the
need for the standard 3-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are
isolated from the internal motor components with protectve insulation. Double
insulated tools do not need to be grounded.

IMPORTANT

The servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge
of the system and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. For

service, we recommend that you return the tool to your nearest Sears Service Center

for repair.

ALWAYS

use original factory replacement parts when servicing.

EXTENSION CORDS

The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. To keep the loss at a

minimum and to prevent overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy enough to

carry the current that the tool will draw.
A wire gauge (AWG) of at least 16 is recommended for an extension cord 100 feet or

ges

in length. When working outdoors

ALWAYS

use an extension cord that is

suitable for outdoor use. The cord's jacket will be marked WA.

CAUTION:

Keep extension cords away from the cutting area, and position

ihe cord so It will not get caught on lumber, tools, etc. during the cutting operation

DANGER;

Check extension cords before each use. If damaged, replace

it immediately.

NEVER

use a tool with a damaged cord because touching the

damaged area could cause electrical shock, resulting in serious injury.

Extension cords that are suitable for use with your saw are available at your nearest
Sears Store.
