5. If you are using one extension cord  
for more than one tool, add the  
nameplate amperes and use the sum  
to determine the required minimum  
cord size.  
Extension Cords  
1. Grounded tools require a three wire  
extension cord. Double Insulated  
tools can use either a two or three  
wire extension cord.  
(see Table A.)  
2. As the distance from the supply  
outlet increases, you must use a  
heavier gauge extension cord. Using  
extension cords with inadequately  
sized wire causes a serious drop in  
voltage, resulting in loss of power and  
possible tool damage.  
6. If you are using an extension cord  
outdoors, make sure it is marked with  
the suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to  
indicate it is acceptable for outdoor  
use.  
7. Make sure the extension cord is  
properly wired and in good electrical  
condition. Always replace a damaged  
extension cord or have it repaired by  
a qualified electrician before using it.  
(see Table A.)  
3. The smaller the gauge number of the  
wire, the greater the capacity of the  
cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord  
can carry a higher current than a 16  
gauge cord.  
8. Protect the extension cords from  
sharp objects, excessive heat, and  
damp or wet areas.  
(see Table A.)  
4. When using more than one extension  
cord to make up the total length,  
make sure each cord contains at  
least the minimum wire size required.

improper maintenance of your engine.  
Your emission control system may include parts such as the  
carburetor or fuel-injection system, and the ignition system. Also  
included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-  
related assemblies.  
Where a warrantable condition exists, HFT will repair your  
engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.

owner’s Warranty Responsibilities  
5. service and Maintenance  
As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance  
of the required maintenance listed in your Owner’s Manual.  
HFT recommends that you retain all receipts covering  
maintenance on your engine, but HFT cannot deny warranty  
solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the  
performance of all scheduled maintenance.  
Component parts which are not scheduled for replacement  
as required maintenance or are scheduled only for regular  
inspection to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary”  
are warranted for the warranty period. Any warranted part  
which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance  
is warranted for the period of time up to the first scheduled  
replacement point for that part. Any replacement part,  
provided it is equivalent in durability and performance, may  
be used in performance of maintenance or repairs. The  
owner is responsible for commissioning a qualified technician/  
mechanic to perform all required maintenance, as outlined  
in the Inspection, Cleaning, and Maintenance section in this  
manual.  
As the engine owner, you should, however, be aware that  
HFT may deny you warranty coverage if your engine or a part  
has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or  
unapproved modifications.  
You are responsible for shipping your engine to a HFT  
warranty station as soon as a problem exists. Contact the  
HFT Customer Service department at the number below to  
make shipping arrangements. The warranty repairs should  
be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed
