• 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 wall 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 full current
from the power source to the unit.
Otherwise, loss of power and over-
heating can occur causing damage
to unit. Refer to table for minimum
wire gauge recommendations. The
cord must be marked with the proper
wire gauge. (Appropriate extension
