Makesure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an | ||||||||
Ext nsion Cord |
|
|
|
| ||||
extension cord be sure it is heavy enough to carry the current your | ||||||||
product will draw. An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in | ||||||||
line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following | ||||||||
table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and | ||||||||
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. | ||||||||
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. | ||||||||

DoubleoubleinsulatedInsulatitoolsnare constructed throughout with two separate layers of electrical insulation or one double thickness of insulation between you and the toolʼs electrical system. Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension cords without concern
for maintaining a ground connection. Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautionsNOTE: when operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool. REPLACEMENT PARTS:When servicing all tools, USE IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS. Repair or replace damaged cords.
