TURBINE UNIT

The turbine unit only requires minimal maintenance

Ensure its filter element is kept clean at all times.
This is the filter underneath the main body of the Motor Unit (28). Disconnect the unit from the mains, 
turn on side and remove foam material. This can be washed out if necessary and replaced when dry. From

time to time this filter will need replacing (part no.L0058).

The turbine bearings are sealed and lubricated for life. There is no maintenance or adjustment required.

Clean the turbine and hose unit with a damp cloth after use.

The hose is stored by coiling it between the motor housing and hose cover.

The mains lead is stored by wrapping around the base of the unit and locating the plug in the space at the
back of the unit.

MAINS CONNECTION

This unit is a Class II appliance which means it is double insulated for your protection, no earthing wire is
necessary.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Earlex Ltd or our appointed agents.
Your unit has been supplied with a mains lead with a fitted plug. This is identified by the fuse holder in the base
of the plug. Please read the following safety instructions before use.

1

. If the fitted plug is cut off from the mains lead then the plug must be disposed of safely. 

NEVER

under any

circumstances insert such a plug into a 13 amp socket.

2. NEVER

under any circumstances use the appliance or mains lead without the fuse cover fitted.

This is the little cover fixed into the base of the plug to hold the fuse in place.

3. 

If you lose the fuse cover then please contact any electrical dealer for a replacement or ring our helpline.

4

. A replacement fuse must be rated at 5 amp. These must be manufactured and approved to BS 1362.

5. IF IN ANY DOUBT CONTACT AN ELECTRICIAN.

If you need to fit a plug to the mains lead, this should be fitted in accordance with the wiring instructions below,
and will need to be used with a 5 amp fuse. If in doubt consult an electrician.
If you are using an extension lead it must be rated at a minimum of 6 amps and fully unwound. Do not operate
with a lead rated at less than 6 amps as this will cause premature failure of the motor which is not covered by
the guarantee.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of the application may not correspond with
the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter L or coloured red.
