GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using on extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause overheating. The table below 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.

Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified
person before use. Keep extension cords away from sharp objects, excessive
heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit should use a wire
of at least 12 gauge and should be protected with a 15 A time-delayed fuse.
Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the
OFF position and the electric current is identical to that stamped on the motor
nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
!
WARNING! Always make sure that your outlet is property grounded.
If you are uncertain, have it checked by a certified electrician.
This garden shredder is for outdoor use only. Do not expose to rain
or use in damp locations.
Although this shredder is double-insulated, the extension cord and
receptacle must still be grounded while in use to protect the operator
from electric shock.
