USE PROPER 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 cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct
size to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the
gage number, the heavier the cord.
