SPECIFIC RULES FOR POLISHING Vibration safety This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders. To reduce the risk of any vibration-related injury: 1. First be examined by a doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to ensure medical problems are not being caused or worsened from use.
ELECTRICAL INFORMATION DOUBLE INSULATION 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 the 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 insulation.
