Double Insulation
Your product is double insulated. This means that all
external metal parts are electrically isolated from the
power supply. This is achieved by placing an extra insula-
tion barrier between the electrical and mechanical parts.
Double insulation means greater electrical safety and
obviates the necessity of having your product earthed.

Do not use petrol, turpentine, lacquer or paint thinner, dry
cleaning fluids or similar products.

any part of the tool in liquid.
