Keep work area well lit.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the
product or to disconnect the plug from an outlet. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts.

The plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord,
reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a
correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension
cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This
plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the
plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified elec-
trician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not change the
equipment plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension
cord plug in any way.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire
gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an
extension cord 25 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in
line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
WARNING: Use outdoor extension cords marked SW-A,
SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOWA.
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk
