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
extension
cord will cause a drop in line
voltage
resulting
in loss of power
and
overheating.Table
50.1 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. To
reduce the risk of disconnection
of hedge
trimmer
cord
from
the extension
cord
during
operating:
i)
Make a knot as shown
in Figure 50.2,
or
ii) Use
one
of
the
plug-receptacle
retaining
straps or connectors
described
in this manual.
