EXTENSION CORDS
Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord.Doubleinsulatedtoolscan
use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.
