I acquired this older Black & Decker Hedge trimmer and it seems to have a special kind of cord. Any idea where I could find this cord or what its called? I have not been able to even figure out what the cord looks like yet.
UPDATE: I cut off the extra plastic to get access to plug it in and the tool doesn't even work anyways. Time for the garbage.
Any extension cord without a grounding lug would work. Take it to the store and try them out until you find one that fits.
I had this exact trimmer, I would use a piece of twine to tie the cord to the trimmer so I didn't lose it constantly; those lock tabs don't work very well, or maybe it was just the cord I had.
One with a lug works. There is space below.
Look again. The lug is the same length as the tines. Where's it going to go as the plug is inserted?
Nowhere - the female end of the cord is what goes in the recess.
