Connecting To The Mains - Fieldmann FZR 2003-E Manual

Connecting to the mains power supply
Before connecting the product to the power outlet ensure that the voltage on the label is the
same as voltage source in your power outlet. It is recommended to connect this machine to
a power socket that is protected by current protection with a release current of 30 mA. Never
hold the power plug with wet hands. The connecting power socket on connecting elements
must be made from rubber, soft PVC or another thermoplastic material of the same strength,
or must be coated with this material.
Used connecting power conductors must have the minimum parameters of a rubber cable
H07RN-F according to DIN 57 282/VDE 0282 and must have a diameter of at least 1.5 mm2.
Power plug connections must have protected contacts and connections protected against
spraying water. Guide the connecting cable through the pull reduction on the guide handle
and insert into the combination switch – power plug. Before use, check that the conductors
are not damaged or not showing signs of material ageing. Never operate the lawnmower
if the electrical lines are not in perfect condition (also applies to lines going to the motor). If
while mowing the lawn the cable is damaged, immediately pull the power plug out of the
mains and only then check the damage.
The extension cable must have the cross section in accordance with the user's manual and
must be protected against spraying water. The power plug connection must not lie in water.
If the product's power cable is damaged, have an authorised service or qualifi ed person
replace it, in order to prevent hazards. It is forbidden to use a product with a damaged power
cable or plug.
Do not disconnect the power cable from the electric power socket by pulling the cable.
Avoid turning the lawnmower on and off too frequently in a short time period, namely playing
with the switch.
Before stopping the lawnmower, cleaning it, and likewise before performing any inspection,
maintenance or repairs, turn off the lawnmower and disconnect it from the electrical power
source by pulling the cable from the power socket.
The repairs of electrical parts may only be performed by an authorised service centre.
On impact with a foreign object, turn off the motor, pull the cable from the mains, identify the
damage and carry out the necessary repairs. Only then start the lawnmower again and
continue working.
If the device starts to vibrate unusually, immediately pull the plug out of the socket and inspect
the lawnmower.
Do not work in such a way that limits the movement of the extension cable.
Do not place the power cable near hot surfaces, or over sharp objects. Do not place heavy
objects on the power cable. Position the cable so that it will not be stepped on or tripped over.
Make sure the power cable is not touching a hot surface.
Keep the power cable and extension cable a suffi cient distance from the mowing blades.
Danger of electrical shock, always be aware of where the power cable is located.
