GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one of heavy enough gauge to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause overheating. The table below shows the cor-
rect size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge.The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a
damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified technician before use. Keep extension
cords away from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for tools. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should
be protected with a 15 A time delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make
sure the switch is in the Off position and the electric current is rated the same as the current
stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.

KEEP THE EXTENSION CORD CLEAR Of THE TINES AND WORKING AREA. POSITION
THE CORD SO THAT IT WILL NOT GET CAUGHT ON LUMBER, TOOLS OR OTHER
OBSTRUCTIONS WHILE YOU ARE WORKING WITH A CULTIVATOR. fAILURE TO DO SO
CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
