Extension Cords; Functional Description - Delta JT160 Manuel D'utilisation

EXTENSION CORDS

Use proper extension cords. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condition and
is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong
grounding type plug and matching receptacle
which will accept the machine's plug. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current of the machine. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage,
resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. D-1
or D-2, shows the correct gauge to use depending
on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier
the cord.
