Polarization Instructions - Makita DVC860L Instruction Manual

Polarization instructions

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). This plug will fit in
a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do
not change the plug in any way.

USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good con-
dition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An under-
sized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheat-
ing. Table 1 shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gage. The smaller the gage num-
ber, the heavier the cord.
