EXTENSION CORDS
If you use an extension cord, make sure that it is in good condition. An extension
cord with insufficient capacity will cause a drop in line voltage and lead to a loss
of power and overheating. The chart below shows the correct sizes to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The lower the gauge, the heavier the cord. If this saw is to be
used outdoors, make sure the extension cord is rated for outdoor use. Do not use
damaged or worn cords.
