Power Supply Cord and Extension Cord

WARNING
￭ Using a damaged power supply cord, plug, or extension
cord may result in fire, electric shock and other personal
injury or property damage. To reduce these risks:
– Check the chain saw's power supply
cord, plug and your extension cord
regularly for damage. If damaged,
immediately disconnect the chain saw
from the power supply.
– Avoid damage to the power supply cord. Keep it
away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
– If the power supply cord becomes damaged, have it
replaced by an authorized STIHL servicing dealer
before use. A damaged power supply cord must be
replaced by an identical STIHL replacement part.
– Never use a damaged power supply cord, plug or
extension cord.
– Unplug the power supply cord and extension cord
when the chain saw is not in use.
– Never jerk the power supply cord or extension cord
to disconnect. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the
power supply cord or extension cord.

– Make sure the power supply cord and extension cord
are located or marked so that they will not be
stepped on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp
objects or moving parts, or otherwise be subjected to
damage or stress.
￭ To reduce the risk of electric shock:
– Use only extension cords that are intended for
outdoor use, identified in the U.S. by the following
marking: "Suitable for use with outdoor appliances.
Store indoors while not in use."
– The chain saw must be connected to an electrical
outlet equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interruptor (GFCI) or Residual Current Device (RCD)
with a maximum differential tripping current of
30 mA.
￭ This power tool has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. To reduce the risk of electric shock:
– Do not change the plug in any way.
– If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet.
￭ Overloading an extension cord can result in overheating
and fire. To reduce these risks:
– Be sure to use an extension cord heavy enough to
carry the current your electric saw will draw. Read
and follow the minimum wire size requirements for
120 Volt appliances set out in, @ 22.2.
– Use of an extension cord not meeting the minimum
wire size will cause a drop in wire voltage and result
in a loss of power and overheating.
– Never use an extension cord with a wattage or
electrical rating lower than the wattage or electrical
rating on your chain saw's rating plate.
– Never use an extension cord if the blades on its plug
are different from the blades on the power tool plug
in number, size or shape.
– Never connect more than one chain saw or other
device to a single extension cord.
