We do not recommend the use of extension cords,
but if you find it absolutely necessary:
• use at least a 14 gauge cord that does not
exceed 50 feet in length!
• the extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug pin.
• a qualified electrician must size cords over
50 feet long to prevent motor damage.
