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 in this

section. 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

or W following the cord type designation. For example – SJTW-A to indicate it is

acceptable for outdoor use.

MOTOR

Many 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.

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.
