Extension Cords
If an extension cord
is necessary, a cord
with adequate size conductors that is
c a p a b l e o f c a r r y i n g t h e c u r r e n t
necessary for your tool must be used.
This will prevent excessive voltage drop,
loss of power or overheating. Grounded
tools must use 3-wire extension cords
that have 3-prong plugs and receptacles.
NOTE:
The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
