GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one of heavy enough gauge to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause overheating. The table below shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge.The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
MINIMUM GAUGE FOR EXTENSION CORDS (AWG)
(WHEN USING 120 V ONLY)
Amperage Rating Total Length of Cord in Feet (meters)
More Than Not More Than 25' (7.6 m) 50' (15 m)
0 6 18 16
6 10 18 16

Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always
replace a damaged extension cord, or have it repaired by a qualied person before using it.
Keep your extension cords away from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire, and
should be protected with a 15 A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power
line, make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same
as the current stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the
motor.
WARNING
This pole saw is for outdoor use only. Do not expose to rain or use in damp locations.
WARNING
Although this tool is double insulated, the extension cord and receptacle must still be grounded
while in use to protect the operator from electric shock.
