RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
ELECTRICAL SAFETY WARNINGS (CONT’D)
•CORD SETS: Make sure your cord set is in good condi- tion, with a cord that is heavy enough to carry the cur- rent that your unit will draw. An undersized cord set will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of power, as well as overheating. The table shown below illus- trates the correct size to use depending on the cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier size line gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. To prevent the cord from
disconnecting from the unit, use the cord hook shown in the Starting/Stopping Instructions.
•Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) that will be used for the unit. Use receptacles with
•Avoid dangerous environments. Never operate your unit in damp or wet conditions. Moisture is a shock hazard.
•Inspect all extension cords and the unit power connection periodically. Look closely for deterioration, cuts or cracks in the insulation. Also inspect the connections for dam- age. Repair or replace the cords if any defects appear.
•Do not handle the plug or the unit with wet hands.
•Examine the electrical switches. Do not use the chain saw if the switches do not properly turn on and off. Do not attempt to make any repairs to the electric switches. Take your saw to a Sears or other qualified service deal- er.
•Keep the cord away from the cutting area and to posi- tion cord so that it will not be caught on branches, and the like, during cutting.
•This electric powered saw is classified accroding to CAN/CSA
