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 appro-
priate 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.
Connecting to the power supply:
This SIP log splitter is fitted with a standard 230v ~ 13 amp type plug. Before using the
log splitter, inspect the mains lead and plug to ensure that neither are damaged. If
any damage is visible have the log splitter inspected / repaired by a suitably quali-
fied person. If it is necessary to replace the plug a heavy duty impact resistant plug
would be preferable.
