1. SAFETY
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY.
 WARNING! It is the user's responsibility to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs and
all electrical connections for wear or damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety
devices. An rccB (residual current circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an rcD
(residual current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an rcD with portable products that are plugged
into an electrical supply not protected by an rccB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a residual current Device by
contacting your sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. the Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by
a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance tester (PAt), at least once a year.
1.1.2. the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances,
and the safety of appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the electric power supply. see 1.1.1. & 1.1.2.

supply to be used, and check that plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the powered appliance by its power supply lead.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damage leads, plugs or connections. replace or have repaired immediately by a
qualified electrician. Where a u.K. 3 pin plug with AstA/Bs approval is fitted, in case of damage, cut off
and fit a new plug according to the following instructions (discard old plug safely).
(uK only - see diagram at right). Ensure the unit is earthed correctly via a three-pin plug.
a) Connect the gREEN/YEllOW earth wire to the earth terminal 'E'.
b) Connect the bROWN live wire to the live terminal 'l'.
c) Connect the bluE neutral wire to the neutral terminal 'N'.
d) After wiring, check there are no bare wires, that all wires have been connected correctly,
that the cable outer insulation extends past the cable restraint and that the cable restraint is tight.
1.1.10. Cable extension reels. When a cable extension reel is used it should be unwound fully before connection. A cable reel with an rcD
fitted is recommended since any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected. the section of the cores in the cable
is important and should be at least 1.5mm² , but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the cable reel is suitable for this product and
for others that may be used in the other output sockets, the use of 2.5mm² section is recommended.
