Servicing of double-
insulated appliances
This appliance is double insulated. In a
double-insulated appliance, two systems
of insulation are provided instead of
grounding. No grounding means is pro-
vided on a double-insulated appliance,
nor should a means for grounding be
added. Servicing a double-insulated
appliance requires extreme care and
knowledge of the system, and should be
done only by qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts must be identical to
those parts being replaced. A double-
insulated appliance is marked with the
words “DOUBLE-INSULATION” or “DOU-
BLE INSULATED”. The symbol
may also be marked on the appliance.
Lubrication
The motor is equipped with two sleeve
bearings. These bearings contain suffi-
cient lubrication for the life of the motor.
The addition of lubricant could cause
damage. Therefore, do not add lubri-
cant to either motor bearing.
