• Long and thin connection lines result in a potential drop. The motor does not reach any longer its
maximal power; the function of the device is reduced.
• Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be made of rubber, nonrigid PVC or other
thermoplastic material of same mechanical stability or be covered with this material.
• The connector of the connection cable must be splash proof.
• When running the connection line observe that it does not interfere, is not squeezed, bended and
the plug connection does not get wet.
• Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum.
• Do not drive the device across the extension cable. Make sure that it is behind you in a secure
position. Place the cable on a path or area that has already been thatched.
• Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not meant. Protect the cable against heat, oil and
sharp edges. Do not use the cable to pull the plug from the socket.
• Protect yourself against electric shocks. Avoid touching earthed parts with your body (e.g. pipes,
heating apparatus, cookers, fridges etc.).
• Do never connect a damaged cable to the mains. Do not touch a damaged cable before it is
disconnected from the mains. A damaged cable may cause contact with live parts.
• Do not use any defective connection cables.
• When working outdoors, only use extension cables especially approved and appropriately labeled
for out-door use.
• Do not set up any provisional electrical connections.
• Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them.
