your power supply must be the same.
– Examine the connecting cord, power plug and
extension cord for damage. Damaged cords,
couplings and plugs or connecting cords that
do not comply with the regulations must not be
used
– Always connect the engine analyzer to a prop‐
erly installed wall outlet.
– Check that the insulation of the connection
cable, extension cord, plug and coupling is in
good condition.
– Never touch the power plug, power cord and
extension cord, and electrical plug connec‐
tions with wet hands.
– Any extension cords used must comply with
the specifications for the particular application
Position the connection cable and extension cord
correctly:
– Check minimum cross section of wires (wire
gauge) – see "Connecting to Power Supply".

mark the connecting cord so that it cannot be
damaged or endanger others.

gerous. Only use extension cords that are
approved for outdoor use, are appropriately
labeled and have a sufficient cable cross-sec‐
tion.

must be water-proof and must never be
immersed in water.
– Do not allow cord to rub on edges or pointed
or sharp objects.
– don't trap or squeeze the cord in or under
doors or windows
– If cords are twisted – unplug the power tool
and straighten them out

2.8 While Working
If the power cord is damaged, imme‐
diately disconnect the plug from the
wall outlet to avoid the risk of electric

Never jerk the connecting cord to disconnect it
from the wall outlet. To unplug, grasp the plug,
not the cord.
The power cord and power plug must never be
touched with wet hands.

Do not leave the unit outdoors in the rain.
In case of imminent danger or in an emergency,
switch off the motor immediately – release the
trigger switch and starting lockout.
