_h,DANGER: RISK OF CUT. KEEP
HANDS AND FEET AWAY FROM BLADE
AND CUTTINGAREA. DO not attempt to
clear away cut material when the blade is
in motion. Make sure switch is in the off
position and the power source is discon-
nected when removing jammed material
from the cutting blade. Do not grab or hold
unit by the cutting blade.
®
CAUTION: Blade rotates momentarily
after the switch is released.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
_h, WARNING: Avoid a dangerous
environment. To reduce the risk of
electrical shock, do not use in rain, in
damp or wet locations, or around
swimming pools, hot tubs, etc. Do not
expose to snow, rain, or water to avoid
the possibility of electrical shock. Do
not handle extension cord or plug with
wet hands.
Use only a voltage supply as shown
on the nameplate of the unit.
Avoid dangerous situations. Do not
use in the presence of flammable liq-
uids or gases to avoid creating afire
or explosion and/or causing damage
to unit.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
this equipment has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other) and
will require the use of a polarized ex-
tension cord. The appliance 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 plug does not fit fully
into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper wall out-
let. Do not change the equipment
plug, extension cord receptacle, or ex-
tension cord plug in any way.
To reduce risk of electrical shock, use
extension cords specifically marked as
suitable for outdoor appliances having
electrical rating not less than the rating
of unit. Cord must be marked with
suffix "W-A" (in Canada "W"). Make
sure your extension cord is in good
condition. Inspect extension cord be-
fore use and replace if damaged. Do
not use a damaged cord. Cord insula-
tion must be intact with no cracks or
deterioration. Plug connectors must
be undamaged. An undersized exten-
sion cord will cause a drop in line volt-
age resulting in loss of power and
overheating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The lower the gauge
number, the heavier the cord (see SE-
LECTAN EXTENSIONCORDin the AS-
SEMBLYsection).
DO not use multiple cords.
Do not attempt to repair unit. Inspect
insulation and connectors on unit and
appliance cord before each use. If
there is any damage, do not use until
damage is repaired by your Sears
Service Center.
Inspect extension cords before each
use and replace if damaged.
Don't abuse cord. Never carry unit by
the cord or yank extension cord to dis-
connect unit.
To reduce the possibility of the exten-
sion cord disconnecting from the unit
during operation, tie the power cord on
the unit. See SELECT AN EXTENSION
CORDin the ASSEMBLYsection. Insert
cord socket on the unit into the exten-
sion cord receptacle.
Do not use unit if the switch does not
turn the unit on and off properly. Re-
pairs to the switch must be made by
your Sears Service Centen
Keep extension cord clear of operator,
unit, and obstacles at all times. Do not
expose the cord to heat, oil, water, or
sharp edges.
To avoid the possibility of electric
shock, avoid body contact with any
grounded conductor, such as metal
pipes or wire fences.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCl)
protection should be provided on the
circuit or outlet to be used for this unit.
