Use proper size and type extension cord17. . If an extension cord is required, it must be of the
proper size and type to supply the correct current to the tool without heating up. Otherwise, the
extension cord could melt and catch re, or cause electrical damage to the tool. This tool re-
quires use of an extension cord of 20 amps capability (up to 50 feet), with wire size rated at 12
AWG. Longer extension cords require larger size wire. If you are using the tool outdoors, use an
extension cord rated for outdoor use (signied by “WA” on the jacket).
Maintenance18. . For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a qualied tech-
nician.
