Polarized Plug
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this machine has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, turn it 180 degrees and try again. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord with this machine. If you must use an extension cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only on a temporary basis.
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may damage electrical components and shorten motor life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller (higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must contain a ground wire, match the required plug and receptacle, and meet the following require- ments:
Minimum Gauge Size | 16 AWG |
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better) | 50 ft. |
