DOUBLE INSULATION
Your Ryobi power tool is double insulated. 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 internal metal motor
components with protecting insulation. Double insulated
tools do not need to be grounded.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is intended to protect the
user from shock resulting from a break in the tool's
internal wiring. Observe all normal safety precautions
related to avoiding electrical shock.
IMPORTANT
Servicing of a tool 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 tool to your nearest
RYOBI AUTHORIZED
SERVICE CENTER
for repair. When servicing use only
identical Ryobi replacement parts.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to operate this tool until you have read
thoroughly and understand completely all instructions,
safety rules, etc. contained in this manual. Failure to
comply can result in accidents involving fire, electric
shock, or serious personal injury. Save operator's manual
and review frequently for continuing safe operation, and
instructing others who may use this tool.
INTRODUCTION
The operation of any sander can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can
result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power tool operation, always wear safety goggles
or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield when needed. We recommend Wide
Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with side shields. Always
wear eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
WARNING:
Look for this symbol to point out important safety precautions.
It means attention!!! Your safety is involved.
