Do not attempt to move or hang the equipment mechanically (e.g. with a hoist) from the handle on the power source
unit. The handle is meant only for manual lifting.
Place the machine on a horizontal, stable and clean ground. Protect the machine from rain and direct sunshine.
Check that there is enough space for cooling air circulation in the machine vicinity.
Before installation
•Make sure to acknowledge and follow the local and national requirements regarding installation and use of
high voltage units.
•Check the contents of the packages and make sure the parts are not damaged.
•Before you install the power source on site, see the requirements for the mains cable type and fuse rating
given in the "Technical data" on page58 chapter.
Do not connect the machine to the mains before the installation is complete.
Only an authorized electrician is allowed to install the mains cable.
