POWER SUPPLY
CONNECTING YOUR MACHINE TO THE POWER SUPPLY:
To eliminate the possibility of an electric shock, your machine has been fitted with a BS approved,
non rewireable moulded 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:
A plug with bare flexible wires exposed is hazardous if engaged in a live power socket outlet.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Green and Yellow - Earth, Blue - Neutral, Brown - Live.
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your
plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which
is marked with the letter ‘E’ or by the earth symbol
or coloured green or green and yellow.
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter
‘N’ or coloured black or blue.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the
letter ‘L’ or coloured red or brown.
N.B.
Three phase machines must be connected by a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT:
Please note this machine is fitted with safety thermal overload protection. If the product, for
example, is used too close to the workpiece - resulting in overheating, the thermal overload
protection will be activated and stop the motor/heating of the machine.
The hot air gun should be switched off and disconnected from the power supply, allowing the
machine to totally cool down - before restarting work.
Remember the nozzle will remain hot for sometime - a safe storage location should be used.
