Troubleshooting chart
Plug fitting
Note: If a moulded plug is fitted and has to be removed take great care in disposing of the plug and
severed cable, it must be destroyed to prevent engaging into a socket. If the supply cord is damaged it
must be replaced by a service agent or similarly qualified person if order to avoid hazard. Your pressure
washer is supplied with a fitted plug, however if you should need to fit a new plug follow the instruction
below. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue - Neutral Brown - Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
appliance may not correspond with the
coloured markings identifying the terminals
in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured
red. No connection is to be made to the earth terminal
of the plug. If a 13 AMP (BS 1363/A) plug is used, a 13
AMP fuse must be fitted, or if any other type of plug is
used a 13 AMP fuse must be fitted, either in the plug, or
adaptor or on the distribution board.
