230 VOLT MACHINES
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTION
TO THE POWER SUPPLY
AND THE ELECTRICAL GROUND
CAUTION: This machine will operate only on AC fre-
quency and electrical voltage shown on
the nameplate. Make sure you have the
correct frequency and voltage before con-
necting the power cord to an outlet.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be
inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. See figure 16
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if you are
in doubt as to whether the outlet is prop-
erly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product - if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 230 volt circuit and has
a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in Fig. 16. Make sure that the product is connected to
an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No
adaptor should be used with this product.
This machine is intended for commerical use.
This machine must be connected to the electrical ground to
protect the operator from electrical shock. The machine has a
power cord with two main conductors and one earthing con-
ductor. Connect the plug to the receptacle. The green and
yellow conductor in the cord is the ground wire. Never connect
this wire to any terminal other than the ground terminal.
WARNING: Always use this machine with an AC three-
conductor electrical system connected to
the electrical ground. Replace any worn,
cut or damaged cords. Replace any dam-
aged plugs, receptacles, or connector bod-
ies. Do not move the machine over an elec-
trical cord. Always lift the cord over the
machin
e.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only an approved extension cord with two main conduc-
tors and one earthing conductor. The machine has a power
cord with wire size 1.5mm
2
.
WARNING: If you use an extension cord, use an
extension cord with minimum wire size
1.5mm
2 . Do not use an extension cord
longer then 15 meters. Do not join two
extension cords.
WARNING: Do not cut, remove or break the ground
terminal. Do not try to fit a three-termi-
nal plug into a receptacle or connector
body that does not fit the plug. If the
receptacle or connector body does not
fit the plug, see your authorized Clarke
dealer to get an authorized person to
make the connection.
