Section 5.0 - Connection to Power Mains
230 V motor. Although the motors supplied with this machine will run safely on a 13 A domestic ring main, on starting
the machine a high current of very short duration is drawn, which could cause your 13 A fuse to blow. If this persists
we recommend to have the machine connected to a 16 A separate radial circuit using BS 4343 (CEE 17) plug and
socket. Ensure the installation is protected by a suitable fuse or miniature circuit breaker.
This work should be undertaken only by a qualified electrician!
If the plug, fitted to the power cable supplied with the machine, has to be changed or replaced, connect the mains lead
conductors in accordance with the following colour code.
Single-phase motors (110/115/220/230/240 volts):
Three-phase motors (220/380/400/415/440 volts):
Machines with a 3-phase motor are connected to power mains using a 5-pin industrial appliance-inlet/connector
