This electric scarier + dethatcher is double-insulated,
eliminating the need for a separate grounding system. Use
only identical replacement parts. Read the instructions before
servicing double-insulated appliances. Use this electric
scarier + dethatcher only as described in this manual.
Electrical Safety
1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should
be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for
this electric scarier + dethatcher. Receptacles are
available having built-in GFCI protection and may be used
for this measure of safety.
2. To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.
Before use, check that the extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. For lengths more than 50 ft (15 m), a No.14
AWG (or greater) extension cord should be used. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
3. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has
a polarized plug (i.e. one blade is wider than the other).
Use this appliance only with a polarized UL-, CSA-, or
ETL-listed extension cord recommended for outdoor,
all-weather use, such as the Snow Joe
®
+ Sun Joe
®
SJTW-A 14-gauge 50-foot extension cord with lighted
end (Model PJEXT50-B). Visit snowjoe.com to purchase
this extension cord online or, to order by phone, call
1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).
The appliance plug will t into a polarized extension cord
only one way. If the appliance plug does not t fully into the
extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not
t, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized
extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet.
The extension cord plug will t into the polarized wall outlet
only one way. If the plug does not t fully into the wall
outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not t, contact
a qualied electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not
modify the appliance plug, extension cord receptacle, or
extension cord plug in any way.
4. To prevent the appliance cord from disconnecting from
the extension cord during operation, use the onboard
extension cord restraint hook and/or make a knot with the
two cords as shown in Table 1.
5. Do not abuse the cord. Never pull the scarier +
dethatcher by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it
from the receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil,
and sharp edges.
