1.2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY.
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 and 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 recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD
together with portable products that are plugged into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a professional
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.
1.2.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on a business premises, to be tested
by a qualified person at least once a year by using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
1.2.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance,
and the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.2.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply.
See 1.2.1. above and use a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
1.2.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.2.5. Regularly inspect power supply, leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage, especially power
connections to ensure that none are loose.
1.2.6. Check that the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply to be used, and check that all fused
plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse.
1.2.7. DO NOT pull or carry the powered appliance by its power supply lead. Products such as welders must not be pulled
or carried by their output cables.
1.2.8. DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.
1.2.9. DO NOT use worn or damage leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace
or repair by qualified persons. 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 (UK only - see diagram at right).
a) Ensure the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin plug.
