EXTENSION CORD

ƒUse only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3- pole receptacles which accept the tools plug.

ƒUse only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the product.

ƒDo not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cords before using and replace if damaged.

ƒDo not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect.

ƒKeep cord away from heat and sharp edges.

ƒAlways disconnect the extension cord from the receptacles before disconnecting the product from the extension cord.
