EXTENSION CORDS
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, use the
proper gauge of extension cord. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your machine will draw.
The smaller the gauge-number, the larger the diameter
of the extension cord is. If in doubt of the proper size of
an extension cord, use a shorter and thicker cord. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage result-
ing in a loss of power and overheating.
USE ONLY a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-prong
grounding plug and a 3-pole receptacle that accepts the
machine’s plug.
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it
is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indi-
cate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
Make certain the extension cord is properly sized, and
in good electrical condition. Always replace a worn or
damaged extension cord immediately or have it
repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, exces-
sive heat, and damp or wet areas.
CAUTION
Electrocution or fire could result if this machine is
not grounded properly or if the electrical configura-
tion does not comply with local and state electrical
codes.
MAKE CERTAIN the machine is disconnected
from power source before starting any electrical
work.
MAKE SURE the circuit breaker does not exceed
the rating of the plug and receptacle.
The motor supplied with your machine is a 115 volt,
60 hertz, single phase motor. Never connect the green
or ground wire to a live terminal.
A machine with a 115 volt plug should only be connect-
ed to an outlet having the same configuration as the
plug.
