Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire exten-

sion cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the

machine’s plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current

of the machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and over-

heating. Fig. D, shows the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next

heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

3. Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for

use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating between

150 - 250 volts, inclusive:

If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has an

outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. C, the

machine will have a grounding plug that looks like the

plug illustrated in Fig. C. Make sure the machine is con-

nected to an outlet having the same configuration as the

plug. No adapter is available or should be used with this

machine. If the machine must be re-connected for use

on a different type of electric circuit, the re-connection

should be made by qualified service personnel; and

after re-connection, the machine should comply with all

local codes and ordinances.
