DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the
usual three-wire grounded power cord.
All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting
insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
The double insulated system is intended to protect the user from shock resulting from a break in the
tool’s internal insulation. Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical shock.
NOTE: Servicing of a product with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the
system and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. For service, we suggest you
return the product to your nearest authorized service center for repair. Always use original factory
replacement parts when servicing.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 230
volts, 50 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this product on direct current (DC).
A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If the product does
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply.
EXTENSION CORDS
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from a power source, be sure to use an
extension cord that has the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in overheating and loss of power.
Before you connect the mower to the mains supply make sure that data on the rating plate are identical
to the mains data. Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires and cut or
worn insulation.
Make a loop in the extension cord. From the right side, pass the loop through the hole in the back
of cord retainer and place it around the hook.(Fig. 14)
