ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the tool to one side of
a wall mounted receptacle. This will prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. A “drip
loop," shown in illustration below, should be arranged by the user to properly position the power cord
relative to the power source.
The “drip loop" is the part of the cord below the level of the receptacle, or the connector, if an
extension cord is used. This method of positioning the cord prevents the travel of water along the
power cord and coming in contact with the receptacle.
If the plug or receptacle gets wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect
the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to the tool. Then unplug
and examine for presence of water in the receptacle.
Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. These
extension cords are identified by a marking “Acceptable for use with
outdoor appliances; store indoors while not in use." Use only extension
cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the product.
Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cords before
using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cords and do
not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cords away from heat and
sharp edges. Always disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle
before disconnecting the product from the extension cord.
To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground. Don't touch the plug
with wet hands.
Use of undersized extension cords will result in low voltage to the motor that can result in motor
burnout and premature failure. Barranca Diamond warns that equipment returned to us showing signs
of being run in a low voltage condition, through the use of undersized extension cords, will be repaired
or replaced totally at the customer's expense. There will be no warranty claim.
To choose the proper extension cord:
• Locate the length of extension cord needed in table below.
• Once the proper length is found, move down the column to obtain the correct AWG size required for
that length of extension cord.
