VOLTAGE & POWER SUPPLY
Ensure that the supply voltage is correct
. The voltage of the power source must match the value given on the name-
plate of the machine within the tolerances of ±10 %. Machines with a 230V plate can be used in 220V mains and
110V machines in the 120V grid.
The machine has been double sealed according to European standards. The power source has to be grounded.
SAFETY FEATURES
The machine is equipped with an Emergency Switch Off Button
. The power supply to the motor is cut off
when the Emergency Switch Off Button is pushed. Always make sure the Emergency Switch Off Button is
pressed or completely unplug the machine when the machine accessories (e.g. Cutter or Grinding Chains)
are not inside a pipe. Always unplug the machine from the power source when performing any mainte-
nance or repairs to the machine.
The machine is operated by foot pedal (Operator Presence Control or
‘
OPC
’)
. When the control is not
held down, the machine stops. Never place any kind of object on the place of a foot (such as a brick).
Power plugs
For safety purposes
, use only grounded outlets. If the plug does not fit securely or match the outlet, do not force it
—
contact an electrician to determine required power supply. Never alter the plug in any way. Use the plug with an
extension cord only if it can be fully inserted into the receptacle. Use the Midi Miller with a heavy duty extension
cord only.
If a power generator is used as power source, ensure that the power rating is sufficient.
