ELECTRICAL SAFETY (for electric
powerheads)
WARNING:
ronment. T o reduce the risk of electrical shock,
do not use in rain, in damp or wet locations, or
around swimming pools, hot tubs, etc. Do not
expose to snow , rain, or water to avoid the possibility of electrical shock. Do not handle extension cord plug or unit with wet hands.
Use only a voltage supply as shown on the
D
nameplate of the powerhead.
Avoid dangerous situations. Do not use in
D
presence of flammable liquids or gases to
avoid creating a fire or explosion and/or causing damage to unit.
Avoid dangerous environments. Do not use
D
in unventilated areas or where dust or explosive vapors can build up
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, use
D
extension cords specifically marked as
suitable for outdoor appliances. The electrical rating of the cord must not be less than
the rating of the unit. The cord must be
marked with the suffix “W-A” (in Canada,
“W”). Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. Inspect extension cord before use and replace if damaged. An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in
line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
Do not use multiple cords.
D
The powerhead may have a polarized plug
D
(one blade is wider than the other); if so, it
will require the use of a polarized extension
cord. The appliance plug will fit 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. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This
plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only
one way. If plug does not fit fully into the wall
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper wall outlet. Do not change the equipment plug, extension cord receptacle, or
extension cord plug in any way.
Do not attempt to repairunit. Inspect the insu-
D
lation and connectors on the powerhead and
extension cord before each use. If there is
any damage, do not use until damage is repaired by your authorized service dealer .
Do not pull or carry by cord; do not use cord
D
as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord
around sharp edges or corners. Keep cord
away from heated surfaces. Do not unplug by
pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not
the cord.
Do not use the powerhead if the switch
D
does not turn the unit on and off properly.
