ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply through an 
approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug, or a suitably fused isolator switch.

IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following 
code:

Green & Yellow 

-

Earth

Blue

-

Neutral

Brown

-

Live

As the colours of the flexible lead of this appliance may not correspond with the 
coloured markings identifying terminals in your plug proceed as follows:

• Connect GREEN & YELLOW cord to terminal marked with a letter “E” or  Earth 

symbol “ 

 ” or coloured GREEN or GREEN & YELLOW.

• Connect BROWN cord to terminal marked with a letter “L” or coloured RED.

• Connect BLUE cord to terminal marked with a letter “N” or coloured BLACK.

If this appliance is fitted with a plug which is moulded onto the electric cable (i.e. non-
rewireable) please note:

1.

The plug must be thrown away if it is cut from the electric cable. There is a danger of 
electric shock if it is subsequently inserted into a socket outlet.

2.

Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

3.

When replacing a detachable fuse carrier, ensure the correct replacement is used 
(as indicated by marking or colour code).

4.

Replacement fuse covers can be obtained from your local dealer or most electrical 
stockists.

FUSE RATING

The fuse in the plug must be replaced with one of the same rating (13 amps) and this 
replacement must be ASTA approved to BS1362.

We strongly recommend that this machine is connected to the mains supply via a 
Residual Current Device (RCD)

If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt any repairs yourself.
