POWER SUPPLY
CONNECTING YOUR MACHINE TO THE POWER SUPPLY: 230V
To eliminate the possibility of an electric shock, your machine has been fitted with a BS approved,
non rewireable moulded 3 pin plug and cable which incorporates a fuse, the value of which is
indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced an approved
BS1362 fuse must be used of the same rating, marked thus .
The fuse cover is detachable, never use the plug with the cover omitted. If a replacement fuse
cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug (i.e.
red). Fuse covers are available from your Draper Tools stockist.
If the fitted plug is not suitable, it should be cut off and destroyed. *The end of the cable should
now be suitably prepared and the correct type of plug fitted. See below.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE IS DOUBLE INSULATED.

*WARNING:
A plug with bare flexible wires exposed is hazardous if engaged in a live power socket outlet.
