If using an extension cord, use only grounded, 

three wire extension cords that are in good 

condition. 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
