If in doubt, use the next heavier gage cord. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. To reduce the likelihood of disconnection of the extension cord set from the cultivator, be sure to use the cord restraint provided.
