POLARIZED PLUGS
To reduce the risk of electrick shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other).
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not change the plug in any way.
USE OF EXTENSION CORD
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.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. Table 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.

WARNING: Avoid electrical shock hazard. Never use this tool with a damaged or
