Extension Cords
Double insulated tools can use either a two or three 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.
Refer to the table below to determine the required minimum wire size.
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. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, be sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. If you are
using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate ampere and use the sum to determine the required minimum wire size.
Guidelines For Using Extension Cords
• If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
• Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified
person before using it.
• Protect your extension cords sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
Read and save all instructions for future reference.
