Is this cord usable and safe for a Milwaukee 12 amp Sawzall used to cut up a stump?

You definitely want a 12-gauge cord for this kind of application -- anything lighter risks burning out the motor in your saw.I can't comment on whether a Sawzall is appropriate for cutting up a stump . . . I have an electric chain saw that works well (and also requires a 12-gauge extension cord).

Truthfully, 12/3 is the only power cord that I use for all my power tools because it can handle the amperage. Sometimes out in the field I would be using the table saw while my coworker is using his heavy duty drill to drill some 1" holes, that's when a cord like this is needed and it does the job.

Yes. With a hole saw, no problem. I use it everyday as an electrician and make 2 inch holes in plastic and metal, and sometime six in holes in foam ceiling tiles. The only thing stronger would probably be the milwaukee but its twice the price.

Yes, 12 gauge cords will carry up to 13 amps for 100 feet with acceptable voltage drops.

Nooooo! Buy at least a 4-6 Amp corded saw. I broke mine taking pallets apart.

The short answer is yes. Milwaukee has two 18v batteries, a light duty and larger Extra Capacity (xc) battery. The xc battery will work on all Milwaukee cordless tools, but the standard (or light duty) will only work on the drills and impact drivers. The light duty batteries have an extra "fin" on the case that does not allow insertion into the larger tools such as the saw and sawzall. You can remove the "fin" with a rotary tool and use in the saw but you will not get the same performance from the battery, will not last as long and will need to be recharged more often. I have the saw and love it, it takes a lot for me to get out my old corded saw now.

i don't know. we just use what we use for our other chain saws. you do need special exten cords for it. the ones higher rated.

Yes, it is. Milwaukee makes all it's 12volt batteries to be compatible with all it's 12 volt tools.

No, it is not (see the photos in my review). Too flimsy, and too small to handle your 12/3 gauge cords.

As long as the motor is wired for 120 volt, it will work just fine. There are jumpers that need to be set in the Motor for 120 or 220 volt operation.Make sure to ask somebody who knows how to do it. My saw was already wired for 120 volt.

I am using a heavy gauge wire( 12 gauge ) It is heavy, but it ill supply sufficient electricity to the mower and the motor will not burn out. There are a few manufacturers listed on the Amazon site. I am personally using the cords manufactured by " US Wire and Cable" BUT that is strictly my preference since I am also using those same cords for my snow blower. Hope this helps

Yes. Keep in mind that it will not cut it like a hot knife thru butter. It will cut it much safer than a larger sawzall that is designed to be handled with two hands. The benefit if this tool is that it is a lighter and safer 'one handed operation' option.

According to the operating instructions the amps will depend on the cord length. The cord on the saw is directly plugged in with no extension cord, and I believe the amp rating is 6 amp. I am currently using a 3/4 inch blade, 4 teeth per inch, style is skip, set is Raker. Cuts everything from ash wood to black walnut wood, and cherry with no effort.

Hi Todd, yes indeed. I was able to use this with standard connectors. It is a heavy cord though. Quite beefy actually. A heavier gage than I expected. I hope this helps.

you should be ok, but it is a single plug at the end, I bought a short same(as the extension cord) rated multi plug cord at homedepot. you can mostly find the extension here at http://amazon.com.I have a aircompresser hooked to this arrangement and use other power tools too.

yes this is a smaller version used to cut small holes in dry wall for ceiling lights etc or small jobs.....12volt makes it easier to use for these smaller jobs.....Full size reciprocating saws are heavy bulky and usually corded, but if not it should have 40 volt.....hope this is helpful....

Yes, it will work fine for that. The cord is rated for safe use up to 15 amps, which you are well under with that lawn mower.

I have had no problem mine. I use a 100' cord. Doesn't over heat, because I, generally, aren't constantly running the saw.
