To use the power tool when no suitable power source is nearby, use an extension cord of suitable size to ensure safety, and to prevent power loss and overheating.
Determine from the accompanying table the required extension cord wire size.
Check power cord and extension cords for loose or exposed wires and damaged insulation, before using.
Repair or replace as needed, before using the power tool.
NOTE: The lower the wire size number, the heavier the wire, and the farther it will carry current without a voltage drop.
WARNING: Never connect this unit to an electrical power source until all operating instructions have been read and understood.
3.Take off the chain.
As the movable part is pulled down by a chain when shipping out, slightly push the handle down and take off the chain from the handle.
