DOUBLE INSULATION
Your tool is Double-Insulated
to
give you added safety. This means that
it
is
constructed throughout with TWO separate
"layers"
of
electrical insula·
tion,orone DOUBLE thickness
of
insulation between you and the tool's elec-
trical system.
Tools
built
with
this
improved insulation system are not intended to be
grounded. As a result, your tool
is
equipped with a two-prong plug which
permits you
to
use any conventional
120
volt eiectrical outlet
without
con-
cern
for
maintaining a ground connection.
