This chain saw is designed with an extension cord hitch
that prevents the extension cord from being pulled loose
during use. To use, form a loop with the end of the
extension cord, insert loop into slot in rear of handle,
and place loop over cord hitch (see Figure 9). Gently
pull loop against cord hitch until slack is removed.
Plug extension cord into chain saw cord.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords with this saw. Use only
extension cords marked for outdoor use. The cord must
be marked with suffix W or W-A following the cord
type designation. Example: SJTW-A or SJTW.
Use proper sized cord with this saw. Cord must be heavy
enough to carry current needed. An undersized cord will
cause voltage drop at saw. Saw will lose power and over-
heat. Follow cord size requirements listed below.
