Extension cable.
If the use of an extension
cord is required, its length
and conductor cross-section must be ade-
quate for the application in order to prevent
a voltage drop in the extension cord, power
loss and overheating of the power tool.
Oth-
erwise, the extension cable and power tool
are prone to electrical danger, and the
working efficiency is decreased.
Recommended dimensions of extension
cords at an operating voltage of 120 V – sin-
gle-phase a. c., with only BLK3.5E (**),
BLK5.0E (**) connected:
