GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
f
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.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have
f
it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,
f
excessive heat and damp/wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This
f
circuit should be protected with the appropriate
time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to
the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF
position and the electric voltage is rated the same
as the voltage stamped on the motor nameplate.
Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
WARNING! Inadequate extension cables can be
dangerous. Extension cable, plug and socket
must be of watertight construction and in-
tended for outdoor use.
