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 tool’s plug. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current of the tool. 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.
