INTRODUCTION

Warning!

When using mains-powered equipment, basic safety precautions,

including the following, should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric
shock, personal injury and material damage.

Read and understand the manual prior to operating this tool.

Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this tool for future reference.

The electric motor has been designed for 230V and 240V only. Always check that the
power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

Note:

The supply of 230V and 240V on Ozito tools are interchangeable for Australia and

New Zealand.

This tool is double insulated in accordance with AS/NZS 3160: 1996; therefore no
earth wire is required.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an electrician or a power
tool repairer in order to avoid a hazard.

Note:

Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when

operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting
from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.

Using an Extension Lead

Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power input of this tool. Before
use, inspect the extension lead for signs of damage, wear and ageing. Replace the
extension lead if damaged or defective.

When using an extension lead on a reel, always unwind the lead completely. Use of an
extension lead not suitable for the power input of the tool or which is damaged or
defective may result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
