feature, simply double the extension

cord, about a foot from the end, and

insert it through the hole at the end of

the handle. Hook the loop formed by

doubling the cord over the tab. Gently

tug on the cord to ensure that it is firmly

retained in the saws handle. Plug the

receptacle end of the extension cord

into the tool’s power supply cord.
