EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords. Make sure
your extension cord is in good condition
and is a 3-wire extension cord which has
a 3-prong grounding type plug and
matching receptacle which will accept
the machine’s plug. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current of the
machine. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Fig. D-1 shows
the correct gauge to use depending on
the cord length. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
