DC. A rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that you 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.
