IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3) Extension Cord - Make sure your extension cord 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:
•
Make a knot as shown in Figure 2; or
•
Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining straps or connectors
described in this manual.
Warning -To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only with an extension
cord intended for outdoor use, such as an extension cord of cord type
SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A. or SJTOW-A.
•
Avoid Unintentional Starting - Don't carry plugged-in appliance with finger
on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
• Handle Cord Carefully - Never carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect
from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
• 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.
• Don't Overreach - Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• Stay Alert - Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not
operate appliance when you are tired.
• Disconnect Appliance - Disconnect the appliance from the power supply
when not in use, before servicing, when changing accessories such as
blades, and the like.
• 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.
• Maintain Appliance With Care - Keep cutting edges 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.
• 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.
