26.
USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN GOOD CONDITION. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. The table on the next page 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 larger diameter of the extension cord. If in doubt
of the proper size of an extension cord, use a shorter and thicker cord. An under-
sized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of power and over-
heating. USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS A 3-PRONG
GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE
TOOL'S PLUG.
27. ALWAYS WEAR A DUST MASK TO PREVENT INHALING DANGEROUS DUST
OR AIRBORNE PARTICLES, including wood dust, crystalline silica dust and
asbestos dust. Direct particles away from face and body. Always operate tool in well
ventilated area to provide for dust removal. Use dust collection system wherever
possible. Exposure to the dust may cause serious and permanent respiratory or
other injury, including silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid
breathing the dust, and avoid prolonged contact with the dust. Allowing dust to get
into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption of harmful
material. Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
GUIDE LINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix
"W-A" ("W" in Canada) to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
Be sure your extension cord is properly sized, and in good electrical condition.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or or have it repaired by a qualified person
before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet
areas.
