► Rotate the control handle (1) 180° relative to
shaft and engage it in position – see "Adjusting
the Handles".
► Swing the motor housing (2) 45° and engage it
in position, see "Adjusting Shaft Angle"
9 Connecting to Power Sup‐
ply
The voltage and frequency of the machine (see
rating plate) must match the voltage and fre‐
quency of the power connection.
The minimum fuse protection of the power con‐
nection must comply with the specifications – see
"Specifications".
The machine must be connected to the power
supply via an earth-leakage circuit breaker to dis‐
connect the power supply if the differential cur‐
rent to earth exceeds 30 mA.
The power connection must correspond to
IEC 60364 and relevant national regulations.
9.1 Extension cord
The design of the extension cord must at least
fulfill the same features as the connecting cord

on the machine. Observe the design marking
(type designation) on the connecting cord.
The cores in the cord must have the following
minimum cross-section depending on the mains
voltage and cord length.
Cord length
220 V – 240 V:
Up to 20 m
20 m to 50 m
100 V – 127 V:
Up to 10 m
10 m to 30 m
► Insert the plug (1) into the extension cord cou‐
pling (2).
9.2 Strain Relief
The strain relief (cord retainer) protects the con‐
necting cord against damage.
► Make a loop in the extension cord.
► Pass the loop (3) through the opening (4).
► Slip the loop (3) over the hook (5) and pull it
tight.
► Connect the extension cord plug to a properly
installed wall outlet.
