Electric power supply for electrical appliances of class rating II
Note:
The rated voltage is indicated on the nameplate of your machine.
The machine may only be connected to an electric power supply with all machine
parts in proper working condition. Take special notice of the following compo-
nents:
Plug.
Power cable over the entire length.
Switch diaphragm of the ON/OFF switch, if there is one.
Plug receptacles.
GFCI (Fault current protective switch)
Electrical appliances of class rating II have a strengthened or double insulation
(protective insulation). They have no connection to the grounded conductor.
There must be at least one of the following safety devices if connected to a sta-
tionary or mobile generator:
Fault current protective switch.
Isolation (earth leakage) monitor.
IT-net.
Note:
Observe the respective national safety regulations!
Extension cable (Accessories)
The machine may only be operated with undamaged and tested extension ca-
bles!
Only use extension cables with grounded conductor and correct connection of
the grounded conductor to the plug and coupling (only for machines of class rat-
ing I, see chapter
Technical data
).
Only use tested extension cables which are suitable for use at construction sites:
Average rubber hose H05RN-F or better – Wacker Neuson recommends
H07RN-F, an SOOW cable, or a country-specific equivalent design.
Immediately replace damaged extension cables (e.g. tears in the sheathing) or
loose plugs and couplings.
Cable drums and multiple plug receptacles must fulfill the same requirements as
the extension cable.
Protect extension cables, multiple plug receptacles, cable drums and connection
couplings against rain, snow or any other forms of moisture.
