Servicing of Double-Insulated

Appliances

This appliance is double insulated. In a double-insulated appliance, two

systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding
means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for
grounding be added. Servicing a double-insulated appliance requires
extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by
qualified service personnel. Replacement parts must be identical to
those part being replaced.
A double-insulated appliance is marked with

the words

or “DOUBLE INSULATED”. The

symbol

q

may also be marked on the appliance.

Lubrication

The motor is equipped with two sleeve bearings. These bearings contain

sufficient lubrication for the life of the motor. The addition of lubricant could
cause damage. Therefore, do not add lubricant to either motor bearing.
