ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! There is always a risk of shocks from
electrically powered machines. Avoid unfavourable
weather conditions and body contact with lightning
conductors and metal objects. Always follow the
instructions in the Operator’s manual to avoid damage.
• Never connect the machine to a outlet if plug
or cord is damaged.
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds
with that stated on the rating plate on
the machine.
• Inspection and/or maintenance should be
carried out with the motor switched off and
the plug disconnected.
• Always shut down the machine before
disconnecting the power plug.
• Never drag the machine by means of the cord
and never pull out the plug by pulling the cord.
Hold the plug to disconnect the power cord.
• Never use the machine if any cable or plug
is damaged, but hand it in to an authorized
service workshop for repair.
• Never use the machine if any cable or plug
is damaged, but hand it in to an authorized
service workshop for repair.
• Prevent unintentional starting of the motor.
Ensure the power switch is in the
OFF
-
position before connecting the machine to
a power source.
Do not modify the plug. If it will not fit the outlet have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Make
sure local regulations and ordinances are followed.
WARNING!
WHEN CLEANING THE MACHINE
MAKE SURE TO AVOID WATER
ENTERING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THE MOTOR
UNIT. WATER CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE OR
SHORT CIRCUIT.
EXTENSION CORDS AND CABLES
The marking on the extension cable must be the
same or higher than the value stated on the machine’s
rating plate.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use
of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
• Keep the connection to the extension cord dry
and off the ground.
• Keep cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cable
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Check that the cord and extension cord are
intact and in good condition. Never use the
machine if any cable or plug is damaged. Take it
into an authorized service workshop for repair.
• To avoid overheating, do not use the extension
cord while it is rolled up.
• When using an extension cable, use only
certified extension cables with sufficient reach.
WARNING!
IMPROPER CONNECTION CAN
RESULT IN THE RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK. CONTACT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IF IN DOUBT AS
TO WHETHER THE APPLIANCE IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.
NOTICE!
GOOD MOTOR PERFORMANCE
DEPENDS ON PROPER VOLTAGE.
EXTENSION CABLES THAT ARE TOO LONG AND/OR WHICH
HAVE A GAGE THAT IS TOO SMALL, REDUCE POWER TO
THE MOTOR UNDER LOAD, RESULTING IN REDUCED OUTPUT
OR MALFUNCTIONS.
