To both above:

Your motor has mass and takes a bit to slow down to up shift, and needs a "blip" of throttle for down shift. Leaving it powered will let the motor overspeed quickly unloaded & it won't upshift..

On 220 stuff I use 220 style extension cords & standard 220 nema rated plugs because they are made to not be comingled. Nema 5 series for 110/120 up to 15 amp nema 6 for 220 up to 30 amp nema 14 for 220 @ 30+ amp. If you are not us of a, sorry I cant help.
