 it is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:

 

You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any  

 other connectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate   

 

safety devices. A residual current circuit Breaker (rccB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend  

 

that a residual current device (rcd) is used. it is particularly important to use an rcd with portable products that are plugged into  

 

a supply which is not protected by a rccB. if in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a residual current    

 

device by contacting your sealey dealer. 

1.1.1.   

You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.

1.1.2.   

the 

electricity at Work act 1989 

requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested by a qualified  

 

electrician, using a Portable Appliance tester (PAt), at least once a year.

1.1.3.   

the 

health & safety at Work act 1974 

makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances  

 

and the safety of the appliance operators. 

 

If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.

1.1.4.   

ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. see 1.1.1. and 1.1.2. and  

 

use a Portable Appliance tester.

1.1.5.   

ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.

1.1.6.   

regularly inspect power supply leads, plugs for wear and damage and power connections, to ensure that none is loose or damaged.

1.1.7. 

  

Important

: Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct  

 

fuse - see fuse rating in these instructions.

 

8

   Do  Not

 pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.

 

8

  

Do Not

 pull the plug from the socket by the cable. 

 

8

   Do  Not

 use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. ensure that any faulty item is repaired or 

             replaced immediately by a qualified electrician.

1.1.8. 

  

This product is fitted with a BS1363/A 13 Amp 3 pin plug. 

      

If the cable or plug is damaged during use, switch the electricity supply off and remove from use. 

      

Ensure that repairs are carried out by a qualified electrician.

         

Replace a damaged plug with a BS1363/A 13 Amp 3 pin plug. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician.

 

A) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.

 

B) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.

 

C) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.

      

ensure that the cable outer sheath extends inside the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight. 

        

Sealey recommend that repairs are carried out by a qualified electrician. 

 

if an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an rcd fitted is 

 

preferred since any appliance plugged into it will be protected. the cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to  

 

be absolutely sure that the capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets,  

 

we recommend the use of 2.5mm² section cable. if extension reel is to be used outdoors, ensure it is marked for outdoor use.
