USE PROPER 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 cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the
gage number, the heavier the cord.
