the minimum wire size. The following table
shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the
gauge number, the heavier the cord. A proper
extension cord will be marked with the suffix
letter 'W' and with a tag stating 'Suitable for Use
with Outdoor Appliances.

Blow dirt and dust out of all air
vents with clean, dry air at least once a week.
To minimize the risk of eye injury, always
wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection
when performing this.

Safety Information
WARNING:
•
When installing the unit, always be
sure it is securely mounted.
-
If using an s-hook to suspend from
mounting hook, use s-hook with
spring loaded safety latches.
-
if mounting unit to the tripod, check
that the legs are firmly set and that
the tripod is wobble free.
•
Pull by the plug rather than the cord
when disconnecting.
This will reduce
the risk of damage to the electric plug
and cord.
•
Make sure that the power and
ethernet cords are positioned so
that they will not be tripped over,
or otherwise subjected to damage
or stress.
Grounded Outlet
Ungrounded Outlet with Adaptor
•
The power cable must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is nearby, properly
installed, and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
The unit is for
use on a nominal 120V circuit and should be
connected to a grounded outlet. A temporary
adaptor, always being held in place by a screw,
may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
outlet if a properly grounded outlet is not
available. The adaptor should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear,
lug, and the like, extending from the adaptor
must be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
•
An extension cord must have adequate
wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge)
for safety.
The smaller the gauge number of
the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable.
For example, a 16 gauge wire has more capacity
than an 18 gauge wire. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. When using more than
one extension to make up the total length, be
sure each individual extension contains at least
