kind of extension cord could
overheat and cause a fire. You
could be seriously injured. Plug
the cord into a properly grounded

If the cord will not reach, use a
heavy-duty three-prong extension
cord rated for at least 15 amps.
4. Before starting the engine, be
sure to unplug and store the
cord as it was before to keep it
