Extension Cords - Genesis GJS450 Manuel D'utilisation

EXTEnSiOn COrDS

grounded tools require a three wire extension cord
use either a two or three wire extension cord. As the distance from the power supply outlet increases,
you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. using extension cords with inadequately sized wire
causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. Refer to the
table shown below to determine the required minimum wire size.
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. for example: a 14-
gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16-gauge cord. When using more than one extension
cord to make up the total length, be sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required.
If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use the
sum to determine the required minimum wire size.
guidelines for Using Extension Cords
• If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix "W-A" ("W" in
Canada) to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
• Be 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 using it.
• Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator!
• Avoid cutting nails,
• Do not cut hollow pipe.
• Check for the proper clearance

• Make sure the blade is NOT contacting the work piece
