VOLTAGE WARNING: Before connecting the tool to a
power source (receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure the voltage
suppliedisthesameasthatspeciedonthenameplate
of the tool. A power source with voltage greater than that
speciedforthetoolcanresultinSERIOUSINJURYtothe
user- as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, DO NOT
PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with voltage
less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
USEPROPEREXTENSIONCORD.Makesureyour
extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extensioncord,besuretouseoneheavyenoughto
carrythecurrentyourproductwilldraw.Anundersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size
to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The
smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
