6.1 Extension cords:
We don not recommend the use of an extension cord with this product as this may result in the
loss of power and overheating of the motor. An additional air hose should be used instead of
an extension cord. Improper use of extension cords may cause inefficient operation of tool,
which can result an overheating. Be sure your extension cord is rated to allow sufficient flow to
motor. Use of an extension cord heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw is very
important. Especially when the power source is of great distance. An extension cord that is
insufficient will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in not starting, power loss and causing
the motor to overheat.
