Porter-Cable 619 - Extension Cord Selection

4. VERIFY the drill’s rotation before starting the drill so it is correct
for the operation being performed.
5. NEVER change direction of rotation of reversing model until
motor has completely stopped.
6. NEVER hold work in your hand, lap, or against other parts of
your body when drilling.
7. DO NOT use drill as a router or try to elongate or enlarge holes
by twisting the drill. Drill bits may break and cause injury.
MOTOR
Most Porter-Cable tools will operate on either D.C., or single phase
25 to 60 cycle A.C. current and voltage within plus or minus 5 percent
of that shown on the specification plate on the tool. Several models,
however, are designed for A.C. current only. Refer to the
specification plate on your tool for proper voltage and current rating.
CAUTION: Do not operate your tool on a current on which the
voltage is not within correct limits. Do not operate tools rated A.C.
only on D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the tool.
EXTENSION CORD SELECTION
If an extension cord is used, make sure the conductor size is large
enough to prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of
power and possible motor damage. A table of recommended
extension cord sizes will be found below. This table is based on
limiting line voltage drop to 5 volts (10 volts for 230 volts) at 150 % of
rated amperes.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors it must be marked with the
suffix W-A following the cord type designation. For example —
SJTW-A to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
