stopped.
34. Don't use in dangerous environment. Don't use
power tools in damp or wet location, or expose
them to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
35. 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 2 (sect. 6.3) shows 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.
