Electrical Safety
Your machine is double insulated for safety and re-
quires no earth connection. The operating voltage is
230 V AC, 50 Hz (for non-EU countries 220 V, 240 V
as applicable). Only use approved extension cables.
Contact your Bosch Service Center for details.
Extension cords/leads should only be used if they
comply with H05VV-F or H05RN-F types.
It is recommended for increased electrical safety to
use a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping
current of not more than 30 mA. Always check your
RCD every time you use it.
For products not sold in GB: WARNING: For
safety, it is essential that the mains plug 6 attached
to the machine is fitted to the power supply cable 9
as shown.
The couplings of connection leads must be pro-
tected against splashes and the coupling sockets on
the leads must be made of rubber or coated with
rubber.
Fixing means for the connection leads must be used.
The connection lead must be inspected for signs of
damage at regular intervals and may only be used if
in perfect condition.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
a Bosch Service Centre.
Products sold in GB only: Your hedecutter is fitted
with an approved 13 A (BS 1363/A) electric plug and
is protected by a 13 A fuse (ASTA Approved to
BS 1362).
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets,
it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its
place by an authorized customer service agent.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a
possible shock hazard and should never be inserted
into a 13 A socket elsewhere.
