• To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
this equipment has a polarized plug
{one blade is wider than the other) and
will require the use of a polarized
extension cord. The appliance plug
will fit into a polarized extension cord
only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the extension cord, reverse
the plug. If the plug still does not fit,
obtain a correct polarized extension
cord. A polarized extension cord will
require the use of a polarized wall
outlet. This plug will fit into the
polarized wall outlet only one way. If
plug does not fit fully into the wall
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper wail outlet. Do not
change the equipment plug, extension
cord receptacle, or extension cord
plug in any way.
The extension cord used to reach the
power source must be:
• Specifically marked as suitable for out­
door use. The cord must be marked
with the suffix “W-A" (in Canada “W").
• Heavy enough to carry current from
the power source the full length of ex­
tension cord to the unit. Otherwise,
loss of power and overheating can oc­
cur causing damage to unit. Refer to
table for minimum wire gauge recom­
mendations. The cord must be
marked with the proper wire gauge.
(Appropriate extension cords are avail­
able at Sears.) Do not use multiple
cords.
• in good condition. Cord insulation
must be intact with no cracks or
deterioration. Plug connectors must be
undamaged, do not use multiple
cords.
