WARNING:
Keep the extension
cord clear of the work area.
Position the
cord so that it will not get caught on the
workpiece, a tool, or any other
obstruction
while the power tool is in use.
If an extension cord is used with this
impact wrench, verify that it is in good
condition. When using an extension cord,
be sure to use one that is heavy enough to
carry the current that the tool will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage, which will result in a loss of power
and overheating.
The following table shows the correct size
to use according to cord length and the
amperage rating that is listed ton the tool's
nameplate. When in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
Verify that the extension cord is properly
wired and in good condition. Replace a
damaged extension cord immediately, or
have it repaired by a qualified electrician
before using it. Keep the extension cord
away from sharp objects, excessive heat,
and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for power
tools. This circuit must consist of not less
than 14 gauge wire, and should be
protected by either a 15 A time-delayed
fuse or a circuit breaker. Before connecting
the power tool to the outlet, verify that the
switch is in the OFF position, and that the
voltage of the power source is the same as
the voltage that is indicated on the tool's
nameplate. Running this impact wrench at
lower voltage will damage the motor.
