Electrical safety rules
ATTENTION! When using electrical tools,
the following safety instructions should
be observed to prevent the risk of
electric shock, personal injury and fire. Read and
observe these instructions carefully before using
the tool.
• Increased safety can be obtained by having a
qualified electrician install a high sensitivity (30mA)
circuit breaker in the house wiring. If you do not have
such a circuit breaker installed, or you do not wish
to have one installed, then we strongly recommend
that the electric power to your mower be supplied
through a high sensitivity residual current device
(RCD). The RCD is designed to provide a high degree
of personal protection against harmful electric
current should fault conditions occur.
WARNING! The use of an RCD or other
circuit breaker unit does not release the
operator from the safety instructions
and safe working practices given in this manual.
• The main voltage must correspond to the one
marked on the technical data plate. Do not use
other sources of power.
• The use of a safety circuit-breaker is
recommended for the power supply line for an
intervention range of 10 to 30 rated mA. Consult a
reliable electrician.
• Before inserting the plug in the mains socket,
make sure that the socket ratings are correct and
correspond to those indicated on the rating label on
the appliance.
CAUTION: touching electrified parts may cause
death by electric shock or burn.
• Never move the appliance by pulling at the
cables.
• Always guide the connection line safely.
• Do not use power tools near flammable liquids
or gases.
• Always disconnect the appliance from the mains
supply before transporting it to other places.
CAUTION: The appliance should always be
switched off at the mains before disconnecting any
plug and socket connector or extension cables.
• Never pass the appliance over the extension
cable while the tool is working. Make sure you
always know where the cable is.
• Do not wire an extension cable directly into your
device yourself. Instead, take the device to your
nearest Performance Power service agent.
ATTENTION! DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Consider work area environment. Do not expose
power tools to rain. Do not use power tools in
damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit and
dry. Try to prevent the device from getting wet or
being exposed to humidity. Do not leave it outside
overnight.
• The power supply cable should be checked
regularly and before using it , make sure the cable
is not damaged or worn out. If the cable is not in
good condition, do not use the appliance; take it to
an authorized service center instead.
• When tool is used outdoors, only use an
extension cable that is suitable for outdoor work
and so marked. Keep it away from the working area,
from damp, wet or oily surfaces and away from heat
and fuels.
Specific safety rules
Sections of cables are proportional to the power and length. To choose an adequate extension cable, please
refer to the following table:
