SAFETY
This method of positioning the cord prevents the
travel of water along the power cord and the
possibility of the water coming in contact with the
receptacle. If the plug or electrical outlet gets wet,
DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or
circuit breaker that supplies power to the machine.
Then unplug and examine the machine for the
presence of water in the outlet.
It is important to use extension cords that are only
intended for outdoor use. These extension cords
are identified by a marking “Acceptable for use
with outdoor appliances; store indoors while not
in use”.
It is important to only use extension cords having
an electrical rating not less than the rating of the
product.
It is important not to use damaged extension cords.
Examine the extension cords before using it and
replace it if it is damaged.
It is important to not abuse the extension cord and
do not yank on any cord to disconnect it from the
outlet.
It is important to keep the cord away from heat
and sharp edges.
It is important to disconnect the extension cord from
the outlet before disconnecting the machine from
the extension cord.
It is important not to use an extension cord that is
undersized. Using an undersized extension cord
can result in low voltage to the motor thus resulting
in a motor burnout or premature failure.
