GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage result-
ing in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size to be used according to cord length
and nameplate ampere rating. When in doubt, use a heavier cord. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier
the cord.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Always replace a damaged extension
cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp/wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit must not be less than a #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.
