POLARIZED PLUGS – To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This equipment must be used with a suitable polarized 2 wire or 3
wire extension cord. Polarized connections will fit together only one
way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the extension cord has
large and small blade slot widths. If the plug does not fit fully into
the extension cord, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, obtain a
suitable extension cord. If the extension cord does not fit fully into
the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not change the tool plug or extension cord in any way.
WARNING: Do Not use the string trimmer with any type of accessory
or attachment. Such usage might be hazardous.
