REMOVE ADJUSTING
KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed
from tool before turning it on.
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL
STARTING. Don't carry tool with finger
on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
EXTENSION CORDS. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have
3-prong grounding-type
plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept
the tool's plug. Replace or repair damaged cords. 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.
The following
table
shows the correct size to use depending
on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating, ff in doubt, use the next heavier gage.
The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
