Black & Decker CM1936R instruction manual USE of Extension Cords

• USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
	Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always use the proper size extension cords with the tool – that is, proper wire size
	for various lengths of cord and heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw. Use of an undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
	resulting in loss of power and overheating. For proper size cords see chart below.
