USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD: Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 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.

If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury. 1. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of tool "live" and shock the operator. 2. Wear ear protectors. 3. Check the socket carefully for wear, cracks or damage before installation. 4. Hold the tool firmly. 5. Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations. 6. The proper fastening torque may differ depending upon the kind or size of the bolt. Check the torque with a torque wrench.
