cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor
extension cord marked "W-A" or "W." These cords are rated
for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. 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.
The following table shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier
the cord.
