EXTENSION CORDS

Double insulated tools can use either a two
•
wire extension cord. 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. Be sure to
use an extension cord that has the capacity to
handle the current the product will draw. Refer
to the table shown to determine the required
minimum wire size.
