er's operator's manual and this safety information must be observed.

Observe the accident prevention regulations set forth by the profes-
sional association for electrical equipment and material and use them

Make sure that IRFUN with electric motor drive is only attached to the
voltage and frequency indicated on the nameplate. The nameplate is
located on the inside of the switch box cover. The voltage to which the
machine must be connected is also embossed on the switch housing.
Choose correct cross section for extension cord.
IRFUN may only be connected to electric power supplies with a fault
current protective switch.
Either fault current protective switches of universal sensitivity must be
used or it must be ensured that the IRFUN is connected on its own
without any other consumers to an fault current protective switch de-
signed for non-sinusoidal current consumption.
When connecting the IRFUN to public mains networks, sockets with
15 A fuse must be used.
