EXTENSION CORDS
Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord
either a two or three wire extension cord. As the distance from the power 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 shown 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 amperes 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 from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

WARNING:
FROM REPEATED USE) REPLACE STRICT ADHERENCE TO PRODUCT SAFETY RULES. If
you use this tool unsafe or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury!
Hold the tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
•
where the tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool
"live" and shock the operator.
Do not leave the tool running
•
Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition
•
to be plugged into an electric outlet.
When operating the tool from an elevated position
•
beneath you.
Always hold the tool firmly in your hands
•
torque of the motor as it accelerates to full speed may cause the tool to twist.
Wear eye and hearing protection
•
specified, everyday glasses provide only limited impact resistance, they are not safety glasses. Use only
certified safety equipment; eye protection equipment should comply with ANSI z87.1 standards. Protective
hearing equipment should comply with ANSI s3.19
Bits, sockets and tool get hot during operation.
•
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask
•
