Revision 09/05, Effective Date September 30, 2005
If using an extension cord make sure it is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the electric current your product will draw. An undersized extension cord
will cause a drop in line voltage that will result in a loss of power and overheating. TABLE 1, Page 9
shows the correct AWG 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.

Safety glasses should always be worn when working around power tools. In addition, a face,
dust mask or respirator should be worn if a cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses
only have impact resistant lenses and may not prevent eye injury-they are NOT safety glasses.
