a WARNING: Do not touch the terminals of the plug
when installing or removing the plug from the
extension cord.
Double insulated chargers are equipped with a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will require
the use of a polarized extension cord.
The charger plug will fi t into a polarized extension
cord only one way. If the plug does not fi t fully into the
extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not
fi t, obtain a correct polarized extension cord.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current that your power tool will draw.
An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The
table below shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
