DEWALT does not recommend the use of extension cords. This
can create power loss and overheating
of the motor. Use an
additional
air hose rather than an extension
cord. If use of an
extension cord is unavoidable,
it should be plugged into a GFCI
found in circuit boxes or protected
receptacles.
When using an
extension cord, observe the following.
