a. Make sure your extension cord is in 

good condition.

b. Be sure to use an extension cord 

which is heavy 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.

16.  Industrial applications must follow OSHA 

guidelines.

17.  Maintain labels and nameplates on the 

compressor.  These carry important 

safety information.  If unreadable or 

missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for
