The smaller the gauge-number, the larger the diameter
of the extension cord is. If in doubt of the proper size of
an extension cord, use a shorter and thicker cord. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in a loss of power and overheating.
USE ONLY a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-prong
grounding plug and a 3-pole receptacle that accepts the
machine's plug.
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is
marked with the suffix " W-A" ( "W" in Canada) to
indicate that it is acceptable for out door use.
Make certain the extension cord is properly sized, and in
good electrical condition. Always replace a worn or
damaged extension cord immediately or have it repaired
by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.
