hair covering
to
contain long hair.
• USE SAFETY GLASSES AND OTHER SAFETY
EQUIPMENT.
Use safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields, complying
with applicable
safety standards
and, when needed, a

• AVOID UNINTENTIONAL
STARTING.

• EXTENSION
CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Cord insulation must
be intact with no cracks or deterioration.
Plug connectors
must be undamaged.
When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized
extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating,
which can shorten the life of the motor. The table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage.
The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
