cord. A polarized
extension
cord will require the use of a polarized
wall

outlet,
reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall
outlet. Do not change the equipment

outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or
moving
parts. Replace

draw. A wire gauge
size (A.W.G.)
of at least
14 is
recommended
for an extension
cord 50 feet or less

The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating.
