Extension Cords
Make sure the extension cord is in good
condition before using. Always use the
proper size extension cord with the tool -
that is, proper wire size for various lengths
of cord and heavy enough to carry the
current the tool will draw. Use of an
undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. For proper size cords see
chart below.
