necessary, a cord with
adequate size conductors that is capable
of carrying the current necessary for your
tool must be used. This will prevent

overheating. Grounded tools must use 3-wire
extension cords that have 3-prong plugs and
receptacles.
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number, the heavi-
er the cord.
