is in good condition. When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized extension cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to
use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier
the cord. To reduce the risk of disconnection of
appliance cord from the extension cord during
operating:
i) Make a knot as shown in Figure 1; or
ii) Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining
straps or connectors described in this manual.
10) Avoid Unintentional Starting - Don't carry
plugged-in appliance with finger on switch. Be
sure switch is off when plugging in.
11) Don't Abuse Cord - Never carry appliance by
cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
12) Don't Force Appliance - It will do the job better
and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the
rate for which it was designed.
13) Don't Overreach - Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
14) Stay Alert - Watch what you are doing. Use
common sense. Do not operate appliance when
you are tired.
15) Disconnect Appliance - Disconnect the appliance
from the power supply when not in use, before
servicing, when changing accessories such as
blades, and the like.
16) Store Idle Appliances Indoors - When not in use,
appliances should be stored indoors in dry, and
high or locked-up place - out of reach of children.
17) Maintain Appliance With Care - Keep cutting
edge sharp and clean for best performance and
to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instructions
for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect
appliance cord periodically, and if damaged,
have it repaired by an authorized service facility.
Inspect extension cords periodically and replace
if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free
from oil and grease.
18) Check Damaged Parts - Before further use of the
appliance, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it
will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other condition that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center unless
indicated elsewhere in this manual.

1) Replacement Parts
When servicing use only identical replacement
parts.
2) Polarized Appliance Connections
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance
has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other) and 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 the plug does not fit fully
into the wall outlet, reverse the 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, or
extension cord plug in any way.
