PLACEMENT OF THE MACHINE
Place the apparatus on a level, compact and clean
surface. Protect the apparatus against rain and direct
sunshine. Allow for a sufficient space before and
beyond the apparatus for proper cooling. When
choosing the position of the machine placement, be
careful to prevent the machine from conducting
impurities and getting them inside (for example
flying particles from the grinding tool).
Cable connections
CONNECTING THE APPARATUS TO THE MAINS
2040 and 2050 apparatus meets the requirements of
Safety Class I, which means that all metal parts are
accessible without the necessity of removing a cover;
the parts are bonded to the protective earthing of
the mains. The apparatus may be connected only
with a mains cable provided with the plug and pro-
tective earthing contact. Switch off the apparatus
only by the use of the main switch on the apparatus.
Never use the mains plug for this purpose! The nec-
essary protection parameters are shown in the
‘Specifications’ section.
The apparatus is supplied with the 16 A for the con-
nection to 1x 230 V single-phase mains.
Only properly qualified person (in electrical engi-
neering) may replace the power supply cable, if
necessary.
The relevant socket outlet should be protected by
fuses or automatic circuit breaker.
NOTE 1:
Any extensions to the power cable must be
of a suitable diameter, and absolutely not of a small-
er diameter than the special cable supplied with the
machine.
