Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double insulated tools
can use either a two or three wire extension cord. As the distance from the
supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Us-
ing extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in
voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. Refer to the
table shown to determine the required minimum wire size.

supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Us-
ing extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in
voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. Refer to the
table shown to determine the required minimum wire size.
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the
cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16
gauge cord. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total
length, be sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. If
you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate
amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum wire size.

Guidelines for Using Extension Cords
•
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with
the suffi x “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate that it is acceptable for
outdoor use.

Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualifi ed electrician if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the tool. Never remove the grounding prong
from the plug. Do not use the tool if the cord or plug is damaged. If
damaged, have it repaired by a MILWAUKEE service facility before
use. If the plug will not fi t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualifi ed electrician.
