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 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.
