DeWalt DW682 - Motor Brushes; Extension Cords

Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires,
damaged insulation, and defective fittings. Make any needed repairs or
replace the cord if necessary.

Motor Brushes
DeWalt uses an advanced brush system which automatically stops
the drill when the brushes wear out. This prevents serious damage
to the motor.
Extension Cords
Double insulated tools have 2-wire cords and can be used with 2-
wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round jacketed extension cords
should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by
Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.) (C.S.A. in Canada). If the
extension will be used outside, the cord must be suitable for outdoor
use. Any cord marked as outdoor can be used for indoor work. The
letters “WA” on the cord jacket indicate that the cord is suitable for
outdoor use.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or
American Wire Gauge) for safety, and to prevent loss of power and
overheating. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater
the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity than
18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the
total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the
minimum wire size.
To determine the minimum wire size required, refer to the chart
below.
