Safety instructions
• Be absolutely sure to pull the plug before:
- moving or transport
- cleaning, maintenance or repair work
- eliminating faults
- checking connecting lines, whether these are knotted or damaged
- leaving unattended (even during short interruptions)
• Check the machine for possible damage:
- Before further use of the machine the safety devices must be checked carefully for their
proper and intended function.
- Check whether movable parts function perfectly and do not stick or whether parts are
damaged. All parts must be correctly installed and fulfil all conditions to ensure perfect
operation of the machine.
- Damaged safety devices and parts must be properly repaired or exchanged by a recog-
nized, specialist workshop; insofar as nothing else is stated in the instructions for use.
- Damaged or illegible safety labels have to be replaced.
• Store unused equipment in a dry, locked place out of the reach of children.
Electrical safety
Danger to life and limb if not observed!
• Connecting attachments must be designed in conformance with IEC 60245-4:1980 (DIN 57 282)
and marked H 07 RN-F, or comparable models. Cross section of wires at least 3 x 1.5 mm² up to
a maximum length of 25 m. Wire cross-section at least 2.5 mm² for lengths of more than 25 m.
• Use only connecting attachments with a rubber plug device for severe requirements that is
protected against spraying water.
• Long and thin connection lines result in a potential voltage drop. The motor does not reach
any longer its maximal power; the function of the device is reduced.
• Unwind the cable completely when using a cable drum.
• Do not use the power cords for purposes they are not intended for. Protect the cable against
heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not jerk on the power cable when pulling the plug from the socket.
• Check connecting attachments for defects or ageing before using them.
• Never use defective connecting attachments.
• When laying the connecting attachments, be sure that they do not get crushed or bent, and
that the plug-and-socket connection does not get wet.
• Do not use any improvised electrical connections.
• Never bridge over protective devices or put them out of operation.
• Only hook up the machine by means of a fault-current circuit breacker: 30 mA!
