TABLE A
Make sure your extension cord is in a.

Use an extension cord which is heavy b.
enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Table A shows
the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.

Maintain labels and nameplates on the 16.

safety information. If unreadable or
