EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord willcause some loss of power.
To keep the lossto a minimum and to prevent tool overheating,
use an extension cord that is heavy enough to carry the
current the tool will draw.
A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for
an extension cord 25 feet or less in length. When working
outdoors, use an extension cord that is suitable for outdoor
use. The cord's jacket will be marked WA.

Keep extension cords away from any routing area and
position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber,
tools, etc., during routing operation.
