Craftsman 316.2926 Manual De Usuario

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your 

attention to possible dangers. The safety symbols, 

and-their explanations, deserve your careful attention 

and-understanding. The safety warnings do not by 

themselves eliminate any danger. The instructions 

or warnings they give are not substitutes for proper 

accident prevention measures.

Extension Cord—Make sure your extension cord 

set is in good condition, is heavy enough to carry the 

current your cultivator will draw.  

If in doubt, use the next heavier gage cord. The 

smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. An 

undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage 

resulting in loss of power and overheating. To reduce 

the likelihood of disconnection of the extension cord 

set from the cultivator, be sure to use the cord restraint 

provided.
