SERVICING DOUBLE-INSULATED UNITS 

This unit is double insulated. In a double-insulated unit, two systems of insulation are provided 

instead of grounding. There is no grounding provided and no means of grounding should be 

added to this unit. Extreme care and knowledge of the system is required when servicing 

a double-insulated unit. Service should be performed by qualified service personnel only. 

Replacement parts for a double-insulated unit must be identical to the parts they replace. Refer 

any repairs to an authorized service dealer. A double-insulated unit is marked with the words 

“double insulation” or “              ”

CLEANING THE UNIT

W A R N I N G

To avoid serious personal injury, always turn the unit off and unplug it before cleaning or servicing. 

Use a small brush to clean off the outside of the unit. Do not use strong detergents, household 

cleaners that contain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon, and solvents such as kerosene as they 

can damage plastic housings or handles. Wipe off any moisture with a soft, dry cloth.

CLEANING THE BAG

1. 

Empty the bag after each use to avoid deterioration and obstructing air flow, which will 

reduce the performance of the mulcher.

2. Wearing eye protection and a dust mask, clean the bag as needed. Turn the bag inside 

out after initial emptying and vigorously shake out dust and debris.

3. Wash the bag once a year, or more often if needed:

• 

Store the unit in a dry, well-ventilated area.
