Safety Rules and Instructions: Extension Cords
Double insulated tools have 2-wire cords and can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords.
Only round jacketed extension cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by
Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.) (C.S.A. in Canada). If the extension will be used outside, the
cord must be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked as outdoor can also be used for indoor
work. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety,
and to prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the
greater the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using
more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains
at least the minimum wire size. Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed
wires, damaged insulation, and defective fittings. Make any needed repairs or replace the cord if
necessary.
To determine the
minimum wire size
required, refer to
the chart:

Safety Rules and Instructions: Polarized Plug
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other). This equipment must be used with a
suitable polarized 2 wire or 3 wire extension cord. Polarized connections
will fit together only one way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the
extension cord has large and small blade slot widths. If the plug does not
fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, obtain
a suitable extension cord. If the extension cord does not fit fully into the
outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not
change the tool plug or extension cord in any way.
