Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord with this machine. Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may damage electrical components and shorten motor life.
Voltage drop increases with longer extension cords and the gauge smaller gauge sizes (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 requirements:
Minimum Gauge Size at 110V | 12 AWG |
Minimum Gauge Size at 220V | 14 AWG |
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better) | 50 ft. |
