It is therefore possible that non apparent residual risks may persist although all protective measures
have been taken.
26. Electrical connection - Safety
- The supply line must be in accordance with IEC60245 (H07 RN-F) fitted with conductors having a
cross section of at least 2.5 mm² and a maximum length of 10m.
- Never use power lines or extension cords over 10m long. Longer supply lines cause a voltage drop.
The motor does not reach its maximum performance resulting in operation of the machine being
restricted.
- When installing the supply line, ensure that it is neither trapped nor compressed, or bent and that the
connector is not subject to moisture or falls in any liquid.
- Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not intended. Protect the cable against heat, oil and
sharp edges. Do not pull the cable to remove the plug from the socket.
- Check extension cable regularly and replace it as soon as you notice any damage.
- Never use a defective supply cable / extension cord.
- Use only extension cords approved for outdoors use, if necessary.
- Never use provisional electrical connections.
- Do not short-circuit safety equipment and never switch them off.
All electrical connections or repairs on electrical parts of the machine must be carried out by a
certified electrician or an authorised service centre. Local regulations, particularly with regard
to protective measures must be observed.
Repairs to other parts of the machine must be performed by the manufacturer or a its authorised
service centre.
Only use original spare parts or accessories. The use of other parts and other accessories may
cause risk of injury to the user and releases the manufacturer
’s
liability for any damage
incurred.
