Elektrische Sicherheit ƒ Design of the connection cable according to IEC 60 245 (H 07 RN-F) with a core cross-section of at least ⇒ 3 x 1.5 mm² for a maximum cable length of up to 25 m ⇒ 3 x 2.5 mm² for cable lengths over 25m ƒ Long and thin connection lines result in a potential drop. The motor does not reach any longer its maximal power; the function of the device is reduced. ƒ Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be made of rubber, non-rigid PVC or other thermoplastic material of same mechanical stability or be covered with this material. ƒ The connector of the connection cable must be splashproof. ƒ When running the connection line observe that it does not interfere, is not squeezed, bended and the plug connection does not get wet. ƒ Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum. ƒ Regularly check the extension cables and replace them if they are damaged. ƒ Do not use any defective connection cables. ƒ Do not set up any provisional electrical connections. ƒ Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them. ƒ Only hook up the machine by means of a fault-current circuit breaker (30 mA). The electrical connection or repairs to electrical parts of the machine must be carried out by a certified electrician or one of our customer service points. Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried out by the manufacturer or one of his customer service points. Use only original spare parts. Accidents can arise for the user through the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from such action.
