Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC
only means your tool will operate on standard 60 Hz household power. Do
not operate AC tools on DC. A rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that your
tool will operate on standard 60 Hz AC or DC power. This information is
printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of power and can
result in over-heating.
