MORE INFO: https://www.ohiopowertool.com/hardwar... Are you paying attention to your extensions?! Probably not... and that's okay! Until you start a fire or destroy your tools. Turns out, extension cords when using corded tools are EXTREMELY important--not only for accessibility purposes, but to make sure your tools are running efficiently! Without the proper power cord, your tool may not perform properly and there is a greater risk of fire and electrical shortages. Customers come to us all the time with tools that have shorted out or are broken from using them with the wrong extension cord. Many fail to realize that using an extension cord that is not equipped to handle the power output of the tool can cause a variety of problems such as fires, voltage loss, and damage to your tool. In this video we break down exactly why they're so important and how they make a difference, but here are some pro tips to always keep in mind: 1) Be sure to check amperage, wire gauge and insulation ratings on the cords you're buying, especially if you'll be using them for long periods at a time. 2) When in doubt, bigger is better! Don't short your cords. 3) Don't double up extension cords. Get a longer one.
