ACCESSORIES
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable
for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.
Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-prong) outlets.
If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry the amount of current
necessary for your power tool. If not, your tool may experience a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating.
For example, the smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
