Safety Instructions For Power Tools
9.USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condi- tion. Conductor size must be in accor- dance with the chart below. The amperage rating is listed on the motor or tool name- plate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace damaged exten- sion cords.
