• To reduce risk of eIectrical shock, use
extension cords specificaIIy marked
as suitable for outdoor appliances
having eIectrical rating not Iess than
the rating of unit. Cord must be
marked with suffix "W-A" (in Canada
"W"). Make sure your extension cord
is in good condition. Inspect exten-
sion cord before use and repIace if
damaged. An undersized extension
cord will cause a drop in tine vottage
resulting in loss of power and over-
heating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The lower the gauge
number, the heavier the cord. (See
"SeIecting an extension cord")

one way. If the ptug does not fit fully
into the extension cord, reverse the
plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain
a correct poIarized extension cord. A
polarized extension cord wilt require the
use of a potarized wail outtet. This pIug
will fit into the polarized wail outlet onty
one way. tf ptug does not fit fully into
the watI outlet, reverse the ptug. tf the
plug stilt does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to instatl the proper wall out-
let. Do not change the equipment plug,
extension cord receptacle, or extension
cord plug in any way.

unit by the extension cord or yank ex-
tension cord to disconnect unit.

nection of extension cord from unit.

erator and obstacles at ati times. Do

• To avoid the possibility of electric
shock, avoid body contact with any
grounded conductor, such as metal
fences or pipes.
