it power supply and rest it on the ground on
its safety stand for at least 5 minutes.
• Always allow to cool gradually by turning to
the lower power (I) for 1 minute after each

undertaken.
• Use of the weed burner for operations
different from those intended could result in
a hazardous situation.
• This product is only to be used for burning
weeds around your house. Any other
usage, which is not declared in this manual
can damage the device and cause serious
danger to the users. It is designed for use
by adults.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is
an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a Residual Current
Device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an
RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
WARNING:
Never use a light
socket. Never connect the live (L) or
neutral (N) wires to the earth pin
marked E or .
Using an Extension Cable
• If an extension cable is required, use an
approved triple core extension cable suitable
for the power input of this tool (see
technical data). The minimum conductor
size is 1.5mm2.
• When using a cable reel, always unwind the
cable completely.
• Also refer to the table below.
• Disconnect the plug from the supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely;
a plug with bared copper conductors is
dangerous if engaged in a live socket outlet.
• Only fit 13 Amperes BS 1363A approved
BS 1362 fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be
marked at the connection points of most
good quality plugs. Attach the wires to
their respective points in the plug
(see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2) and
Blue is for Neutral (N) (3).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains
plug ensure that the cable restraint (4) is
holding the outer sheath of the cable firmly
and that the two leads are correctly fixed at
the terminal screws.
