SELECT AN EXTENSION CORD
Use only a 120 A.C. voltage supply as shown on the nameplate of the unit.
STo reduce the risk of electrical shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will re- quire the use of a polarized extension cord. The appliance plug will fit into a po- larized extension cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the exten- sion cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized ex- tension cord. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall out- let. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If plug does not fit ful- ly into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electri- cian to install the proper wall outlet. Do
not change the equipment plug, exten- sion cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.
The extension cord used to reach the pow- er source must be:
D Specifically marked as suitable for out- door use. The cord must be marked with the suffix
D Heavy enough to carry full current from the power source to the unit. Otherwise, loss of power and overheating can occur causing damage to unit. Refer to table for minimum wire gauge recommendations. The cord must be marked with the proper wire gauge. (Appropriate extension cords are available.) Do not use multiple cords.
D In good condition. Cord insulation must be intact with no cracks or deterioration. Plug connectors must be undamaged.
