Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension
cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord
which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching
receptacle which will accept the tool’s plug. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry
the current of the tool. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and over-
heating. Fig. 3, shows the correct gauge to use depending
on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
