5.2 CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY

Make sure the power supply information on the machine's rating plate is compatible
with the power supply you intend to connect it to.
This machine comes supplied without a plug. It is designed for connection to a 16amp
power supply rated at 230V AC.

A suitable plug must be fitted by a qualified electrician.
Because it is constructed mostly of metal parts, it is a Class 1 machine; meaning,
it must have an earth connection in the power supply. This is to prevent electrocution
in the event of a failure.
