WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this unit has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension
cord.
This unit plug will only fit into a polarized extension cord in one orientation. If the plug does not
fully fit into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct
polarized extension cord.
A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will only fit
into a polarized wall outlet in a specific orientation. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall
outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper wall outlet. Do not change the unit plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord
plug in any way.
1. Secure the extension cord to the motor housing using the notch above the handle.
This prevents accidental removal of the electrical cord.
2. Plug the female end of the electrical cord into the receptacle at the back of the unit.
