Mains plug replacement
(U.K. & Ireland only)
• Should your mains plug need replacing and you are
competent to do this, proceed as instructed below.
If you are in doubt, contact an authorized BTI repair
agent or a qualifi ed electrician.
• Disconnect the plug from the supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug with
bared copper conductors is dangerous if engaged
in a live socket outlet.
• Only fi t 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs fi tted
with the correctly rated fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked
at the connection points of most good quality plugs.
Attach the wires to their respective points in the plug
(see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2) and Blue is for
Neutral (N) (4).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug
ensure that the cable restraint (3) is holding the outer
sheath of the cable fi rmly and that the two leads are
correctly fi xed at the terminal screws.
Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N) wires
to the earth pin marked E or .
For 115 V units with a power rating exceeding 1500 W, we
recommend to fi t a plug to BS4343 standard.
Using an extension cable
If an extension cable is required, use an approved
extension cable suitable for the power input of this
machine (see technical data). The minimum conductor
size is 1.5 mm
2
. The cable has to have a rubber jacket
and a grounding conductor. When using a cable reel,
always unwind the cable completely.
