Electrical Information
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 heavy enough 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.

Not Recommended
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 use.
Keep extension cords away from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit should comprise a wire of at
least 12 gauge 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 identical to that stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will
damage the motor.
!
WARNING! Although this device is double-insulated,
the extension cord and receptacle must still be
grounded while in use to protect the operator
from electric shock.
!
WARNING! This grass trimmer is for outdoor use only. Do
not expose to rain or use in damp locations.
!
CAUTION! Always make sure that your outlet is properly grounded. If
you are uncertain, have it checked by a certified electrician.
