IMPORTANT SAFETY INTRODUCTIONS
EXTENSION CORDS
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from a power source, be sure to use an extension
cord that has the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage, possibly resulting in overheating, loss of power, and/or circuit breaker or GFCI
tripping. 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 “WA” or “W” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
It is possible to tie the extension cord and power cord in a knot to prevent them from becoming
disconnected during use. Make a knot, then connect the plug end of the power cord into the receptacle
end of the extension cord. This method can also be used to tie two extension cords together.
