Extension Cords
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 a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. The following table 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.

The trimmer is shipped with the bail handle
tied to the trimmer. To attach the bail handle:
• Cut the zip tie which holds the handle to the
trimmer.
• Remove the phillips head screws from both
sides of the trimmer housing.
• Position the handle in place as shown in
figure A.
• Reinsert the phillips head screws into the openings on the side of the handle and

ATTACHING EXTENSION CORD TO TRIMMER
An extension cord retainer is built into
the switch handle that helps prevent the tool from coming unplugged. To use this
feature, first overlap the pigtail cord with the extension cord and tie the two cords in a
knot as shown in figure B. Then, double the extension cord several inches from the
end, and hook the loop formed by doubling the cord over the post in the opening in the
back of the handle area as shown in figure C. Gently tug on the cord to insure that it is
firmly retained in the trimmer's handle.
