PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS & CAUTIONS.

1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING!
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 an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified
electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by contacting
your Sealey dealer.
You must
also read and understand the
following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The
Electricity at Work Act 1989
requires all portable
electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be
tested by a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance
Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. 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.
1.1.3. 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.
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit
and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or
damage and check all connections to ensure that none is
loose.
1.1.6.
Important:
Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance
matches the power supply to be used and that the plug is
fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7.
DO NOT
pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
1.1.8.
DO NOT
pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
1.1.9.
DO NOT
use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors.
Immediately have any faulty item repaired or replaced by a
qualified electrician. When an ASTA/BS approved UK 3 pin
plug is damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and
dispose of the plug safely.
Fit a new plug according to the
following instructions (UK only).
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’.
d) After wiring, check
that there are no bare
wires, that all wires
have been correctly
connected, that the cable outer insulation extends
beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
Double insulated products, which are always marked with this
symbol , are fitted with live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires
only. To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above.
DO NOT
connect either wire to the earth terminal.

1.1.10. Products which require more than 13 amps are supplied
without a plug. In this case you must contact a qualified
electrician to ensure that a suitably rated supply is available.
We recommend that you discuss the installation of an
industrial round pin plug and socket with your electrician.
1.1.11. 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.
