Safety Instructions For Power Tools
9.USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD for the tool. Make sure your exten- sion cord is in good condition. Con- ductor size should be in accordance with the chart below. The amperage rating should be listed on the motor or tool nameplate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and over- heating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace exten- sion cords if they become dam- aged.

17.USE RECOMMENDED ACCES- SORIES. Consult the owner’s manual for recommended acces- sories. The use of improper acces- sories may cause risk of injury.
18.CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is dam- aged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mount- ing, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
