14. Use proper 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 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.

clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or
other jewelry which may get caught in moving
parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.

mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses,
they are NOT safety glasses.

will operate properly and perform its intended
function - check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may
affect its operation.
