This circuit
must not be
less than a #18 wire with a 9 A time lag
fuse. NOTE:
When using an extension
cord on a circuit with a #18 wire, the
extension cord must not exceed 25 feet
in length. Before connecting
the tool 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.
