USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD

. Make

sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. Conductor size should be in accor-
dance with the chart below. The amperage
rating should be listed on the motor or tool
nameplate. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Your extension
cord must also contain a ground wire and
plug pin. Always repair or replace exten-
sion cords if they become damaged. 

Minimum Gauge for Extension Cords

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL.

loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,
bracelets, or other jewelry which may get
caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear
is recommended. Wear protective hair cov-
ering to contain long hair.

11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES.

Also

use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safe-
ty glasses.

12. SECURE WORK.

Use clamps or a vise to

hold work when practical. It’s safer than
