MOTOR
Be sure your power supply agrees with
nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC means
your tool will operate on standard 60 Hz
household power. Do not operate AC tools
on DC. A rating of 120 volts AC/DC means
that your tool will operate on standard 60 Hz
AC or DC power. This information is printed
on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause
loss of power and can result in over-heating.
All BLACK+DECKER tools are factory-
tested; if this tool does not operate, check
the power supply. This tool is AC only.
