capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in
overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine the
minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only round
jacketed cords listed by Underwriter's Laboratories (UL)
should be used.
When working outdoors with a product , use an extension
cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is
designated with "W-A" or "W" on the cord's jacket. Before
using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed
wires and cut or worn insulation.

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 voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table shows
the correct size to use depending on cord length and name
plate 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:
1. Make a knot as shown in Figure A. or
2. Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining straps or
connectors.

WARNING
Keep the extension cord clear of the working area.Position
the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools, or
other obstructions while you are working with a power tool.
Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged replace
immediately. Never use the product with a damaged cord
since touching the damaged area could cause electrical
shock resulting in serious injury.
