ELECTRICAL
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the
WRRO¶V SOXJ :KHQ XVLQJ D SRZHU WRRO DW D FRQVLGHUDEOH
distance from the power source, use an extension cord
heavy enough to carry the current that the tool will draw.
An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line
voltage, resulting in a loss of power and causing the motor
to overheat.
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
