operated without the catcher assembly attached.
Warning: The use of any other accessory or attachment might
increase the risk of injury.
Warning: To reduce the risk of injury, inspect catcher
assembly frequently and replace with recommended
replacement if these are signs of wear or deterioration.

into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the
plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct
polarized extension cord. Apolarized extension cord

plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not
change the equipment plug, extension cord receptacle,
