To avoid the possibility of the appliance or plug receptacle getting wet, position the machine to one

side of a wall mounted receptacle. This will prevent water from dripping into the receptacle or plug. A

"drip loop," shown in the picture below, should be arranged by the user to properly position the power

cord relative to the power source. Use the drip loop as a way to prevent GFCI and plug from getting

wet.

The "drip loop" is that part of the cord below the level of the receptacle (or the connector, if an exten-

sion cord is used). This method of positioning the cord prevents the travel of water along the power

cord and coming in contact with the receptacle.

If the plug or receptacle gets wet, DO NOt unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker

that supplies power to the tool. Then unplug and examine for presence of water in the receptacle.

Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. These extension cords are

identified by a marking "Acceptable for use with outdoor appliances; store indoors while not

in use." Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the

product. DO NOt use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cords before using and

replace if damaged. DO NOt abuse extension cords and DO NOt yank on any cord to dis-

connect. Keep cords away from heat and sharp edges. Always disconnect the extension cord

from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension cord.

alwaYs make certain that the power source required for the electric motor is correct and always

use the correct NEMA configuration plug. Motors can burn out when the line voltage falls 10% below

the voltage rating of the motor. Failure to use proper voltage will cause the motor to overheat. Make

certain that the correct size grounded (3-wires) extension cord is used.
