electric shock, use only with an extension
cord intended for outdoor use, such as an
extension cord of cord type SW-A,
SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A,

Extension Cord — 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 extension cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Table 1 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. To reduce the risk of
disconnection of appliance cord from the
extension cord during operating:
i) Make a knot as shown in Figure 1; or
ii) Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining
straps or connectors described in this
manual.
