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 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.

UNPACKING AND CLEANING

Carefully unpack the machine and all loose items from the shipping container(s). Remove the protective coating from

all unpainted surfaces. This coating may be removed with a soft cloth moistened with kerosene (do not use acetone,

gasoline or lacquer thinner for this purpose). After cleaning, cover the unpainted surfaces with a good quality household

floor paste wax.
