■ USE SAFETY GLASSES - Wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles when operating this
product. Use face or dust mask if environment is dusty.
DOUBLE INSULATION - The tiller has double insulation. This means that all external metal
parts are insulated from the electrical supply. This is achieved by introducing an insulation layer
between electrical and mechanical parts. The double insulation guarantees you the greatest
possible safety.
■ EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension
cord be sure it is heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized extension
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
