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 person before using it. Keep your
extension cords away from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.Use a separate
electrical circuit for your 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.

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
correct 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.
