2. General Health & Safety Guidance
Ensure that you carefully read and fully understand the
instructions in this manual before assembly, installation and
use of this product. Keep these instructions in a safe place for
future reference.
WARNING: for your own safety, do not attempt to operate this machine
until it is completely assembled and installed according to
these instructions.
WARNING: When using any machine, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and
personal injury.
Safe Operation
1. Use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
• The operation of any machine can result in foreign objects being thrown
into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Protective
eyewear or other suitable eye protection or face shield should be used at
all times. Everyday spectacles only have impact resistant lenses. They are
not protective eyewear and do not give additional lateral protection.
• Use respiratory protective equipment (dust mask etc.) if the machining
operation creates dust. Exposure to high levels of dust created by
machining hardwoods, softwoods and man made composite boards can
result in serious health problems. Some imported hardwoods give off
highly irritating dust, which can cause a burning sensation. The use of
respiratory protective equipment should not be seen as an alternative to
controlling the risk of exposure at source by using adequate dust
extraction equipment.
• The use of ear plugs or ear defenders is recommended when the machine
is in use, particularly if the noise level exceeds 85 dB.
• Wear suitable protective gloves when handling cutting tools or blades.
Gloves should NOT be worn when using the machine as they can be
caught in moving parts of the machine.
• Non-slip safety footwear is recommended when using the machine and
handling large work pieces.
2. Dress appropriately
• Do not wear loose clothing, neckties or jewellery; they can be caught in
moving parts of the machine.
• Roll up long sleeves above the elbow.
• Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
3. Safety warnings
• Find and read any warning labels on the machine.
• It is important that any labels bearing health and safety warnings are
not removed, defaced or covered. Replacement labels can be obtained by
contacting our Customer Service Department.
4. Familiarise yourself with the machine
• If you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of this machine,
obtain advice from your supervisor, instructor, or other qualified person or
contact your retailer for information on training courses. Do not use this
machine until adequate training has been undertaken.
5. Take care when moving or positioning the machine
• Some machines can be very heavy. Ensure the floor of the area in which
the machine is to be used is capable of supporting the machine.
• The machine and its various components can be heavy.
Always adopt a safe lifting technique and seek assistance when lifting
heavy components. In some cases it may be necessary to use mechanical
handling equipment to position the machine within the work area.
• Some machines have optional wheel kits available to allow them to be
manoeuvred around the workshop as required. Care should be taken to
install these according to the instructions provided.
• Due to the nature of the design of some machines the centre of gravity
will be high making them unstable when moved. Extreme care should be
taken when moving any machine.
• If transportation of the machine is required then all precautions relating
to the installation and handling of the machine apply. In addition, ensure
that any vehicles or manual handling equipment used for transportation
are of adequate specification.
6. The machine should be level and stable at all times
• When using a leg stand or cabinet base that is designed to be fitted to
the machine, always ensure that it is securely fastened to the machine
using the fixings provided.
• If the machine is suitable to be used on a workbench, ensure that the
workbench is well constructed and capable of withstanding the weight
of the machine. The machine should always be securely fastened to the
workbench with appropriate fixings.
• Where possible, floor standing machines should always be secured to the
floor with fixings appropriate to the structure of the floor.
• The floor surface should be sound and level. All of the feet of the
machine should make contact with the floor surface. If they do not, either
re-locate the machine to a more suitable position or use packing shims
between the feet and the floor surface to ensure the machine is stable.
7. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches
• Ensure that all adjusting wrenches and keys are removed before
switching the machine ‘ON’. There is a risk of severe personal injury or
damage to the machine from airborne objects.
8. Before switching the machine ‘ON’
• Clear the machine table of all objects (tools, scrap pieces etc.)
• Make sure there is no debris between the work piece and the
table / work support.
• Ensure that the work piece is not pressed against, or touching the saw
blade or cutting tool.
• Check all clamps, work holding devices and fences to ensure that they
are secure and cannot move during machining operations.
• Plan the way that you will hold and feed the work piece for the entire
machining operation.
9. Whilst machining
• Before starting work, watch the machine while it runs. If it makes
an unfamiliar noise or vibrates excessively, switch the machine ‘OFF’
immediately and disconnect it from the power supply. Do not restart until
finding and correcting the source of the problem.
10. Keep the work area clear
• Working clearances can be thought of as the distances between
machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine
without limitation. Consider existing and anticipated machine needs,
size of material to be processed through each machine and space for
auxiliary stands and/or work tables. Also consider the relative position of
each machine to one another for efficient material handling. Be sure to
allow yourself sufficient room to safely operate your machines in any
foreseeable operation.
• Cluttered work areas and benches create the risk of accidents. Keep
benches clear and tidy away tools that are not in use.
• Ensure that the floor area is kept clean and clear of any dust and debris
that may create trip or slip hazards.
11. Consider the work area environment
• Do not expose the machine to rain or damp conditions.
• Keep the work area well lit and ensure that there is artificial lighting
available when there is insufficient natural light to effectively light the
work area. Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and
prevent eye strain.
• Do not use the machine in explosive environments eg. in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
• The presence of high levels of dust created by machining wood can
present a risk of fire or explosion. Always use dust extraction equipment
to minimise the risk.
12. Keep other persons away (and pets)
• The machine is designed to be used by one person only.
• Do not let persons, especially children, touch the machine or extension
cable (if used) and keep visitors away from the work area.
• Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn the power supply off
and do not leave the machine unattended until it comes to a
complete stop.
• If the work area is to be left unattended, all machinery should be
switched ‘OFF’ and isolated from the mains power supply.
13. Store machines safely when not in use

5
2. General Health & Safety Guidance - cont.
• When not in use, machines should be stored in a dry place, out of reach of
children. Do not allow persons unfamiliar with these instructions or with the
machine to operate it.
14. Do not overreach
• Choose a working position that allows your body to remain balanced and
feed the work piece in to the machine without overreaching.
• Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
15. Electrical supply
• Electrical circuits should be dedicated to each machine or large enough to
handle combined motor amp loads. Power outlets should be located near
each machine so that power or extension cables are not obstructing high-
traffic areas. Observe local electrical guidelines for proper installation of new
lighting, power outlets, or circuits.
• The machine must be connected to an earthed power supply.
• The power supply must be equipped with a circuit breaker that provides short
circuit, overload and earth leakage protection.
• The voltage of the machine must correspond to the voltage of the mains
power supply.
• The mains plug fitted to the machine should always match the power outlet.
Do not modify the plug in any way. If a replacement plug is required it should
be fitted by a competent person and of the correct type and rating for the
machine.
• If you are unsure about any electrical connections always consult a qualified
electrician.
16. Avoid unintentional starting of the machine
• Most machines are fitted with a no-volt release (NVR) switch to prevent
unintentional starting. If in doubt always ensure the machine switch is in
the ‘OFF’ position before connecting it to the power supply. This means the
machine will not automatically start up after a power cut or switching on of
the power supply, unless you first reset the start switch.
17. Outdoor use
• Your machine should not be used outdoors.
18. Extension cables
• Whenever possible, the use of extension cables is not recommended. If the
use of an extension cable is unavoidable, then it should have a minimum core
cross section of 2.5mm² and limited to a maximum length of 3 metres.
• Extension cables should be routed away from the direct working area to
prevent a trip hazard.
19. Guard against electric shock
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes and
radiators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
20. Always work within the machine’s intended capacities
• Operator safety and machine performance are seriously adversely affected if
attempts to make the machine perform beyond its limits
are made.
21. Do not abuse the power cable
• Never pull the power cable to disconnect it from the power socket. Always
use the plug.
• Keep the power cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
• Do not use the power cable for carrying or moving the machine.
22. Secure the work piece
• Ensure that the work piece is securely held before starting to machine it.
• When working within 300 mm of the machining area, always use a push stick
to feed the work piece in to the blade or cutting tool. The push stick should
have a minimum length of 400 mm. If the push stick becomes damaged,
replace it immediately.
• Use extra supports (roller support stands etc.) for any work pieces large
enough to tip when not held down to the table top.
• Do not use another person as a substitute for a table extension, or as
additional support for a work piece that is longer or wider than the basic
table, or to help feed, support, or pull the work piece.
• Do not attempt to machine more than one work piece at a time.
• When feeding the work piece towards the blade or cutting tool never position
your hands in direct line of the cutting path. Avoid awkward operations and
hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand or fingers to move
into the machining area.
23. Stay alert
• Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alertness at all times
when the machine is being used.
• Use all machines with extreme care and do not use the machine when you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
24. Use the correct tool for the job
• Do not use the machine for any purpose other than which it
was designed.
• When selecting replacement cutting tools and blades, always ensure that they
are designed to cut the material that you intend to use them for. If in any
doubt seek further advice from the manufacturer.
25. Connect dust extraction equipment
• Always use dust extraction equipment. The dust extractor should be of
suitable size and capacity for the machine that it is connected to and have
a filtration level appropriate to the type of waste being collected. Refer to
the relevant section of the manual for details of the specific dust extraction
requirements for this machine.
• The dust extractor should be switched ‘ON’ before starting the machine that it
is connected to. The dust extractor should be left running for 30 seconds after
the last machining operation is complete in order to clear any residual waste
from the machine.
26. Ensure that the machine is correctly guarded
• Never use the machine if any of the standard safety guards and equipment
are removed or damaged.
• Some machines incorporate safety interlocks to prevent the machine from
being used without the guards in place. Never attempt to bypass or modify
the interlocks to allow the machine to be used without the guards in place.
27. Maintain your machine with care
• This manual gives clear instructions on installation, set up and operation of
the machine and also details any routine and preventative maintenance that
should be performed periodically by the user.
• Remember always to switch off and unplug the machine from the power
supply before carrying out any setting up or maintenance operations.
• Follow any instructions for the maintenance of accessories
and consumables.
• Do not use compressed air to clean the machine. Always use a brush to
dislodge dust in places that are awkward to reach and a dust extractor to
collect the waste.
• Inspect electric cables periodically and, if damaged, have them replaced by an
authorised service facility or qualified electrician.
• Inspect extension cables (if used) periodically and replace if damaged.
28. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean
• Correctly maintained cutting tools are easier to control and less likely
to bind.
• Cutting tools and blades can become hot during use. Take extreme care when
handling them and always allow them to cool before changing, adjusting or
sharpening them.
29. Disconnect the machine from the power supply
• When not in use, before servicing, changing blades etc. always disconnect the
machine from the power supply.
30. Check for damaged parts
• Before each use of the machine, it should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function.
• Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other conditions that may affect the operation of
the machine.
• A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced
by a qualified person unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual.
• Do not use the machine if the switch does not turn the machine ‘ON’
and ‘OFF’.
• Have defective switches replaced by a qualified person.
31. Warning!

6
2. General Health & Safety Guidance - cont.
1. Safe Operation
• Floor standing dust extractors should be positioned on a level floor.
Ensure that there is no debris between the base of the extractor and
the floor.
• Wall mounted dust extractors, or those used with an optional wall
mounting bracket, should be fixed to a solid block or brick wall using
suitable fixings that will withstand the weight of the machine. If fixing
to a studded wall, care should be taken to locate the fixings in to
the studding of the wall. Plasterboard alone is not strong enough to
withstand the weight of the machine.
• When wall mounting the dust extractor always consider it’s gross weight
when full of waste in order to select the correct type of fixings.
• Never place the dust extractor on a raised surface or workbench.
• In all cases, position the dust extractor as close as possible to the
application it is to be used for.
• It may be necessary to increase the length or reduce the diameter of the
extraction hose to suit the application. Never over stretch the hose to
make it reach.
• The strength of suction alone may cause the dust extractor to be
pulled in the direction of the hose, particularly if the hose has been
over stretched or if an optional wheel kit is fitted. Never stand directly
between the dust extractor and the machine that it is connected to.
2. Familiarise yourself with the machine
• If you are not thoroughly familiar with dust extractors, be aware of the
inherent risks due to the way in which these machines work. There are
moving parts inside the machine that can cause serious injury. Always
strictly follow any safety instructions detailed in the manual when using,
emptying or servicing the machine.
3. Before switching the machine ‘ON’:
• Remove the transit strap, which is used to secure the lid assembly to the
drum body, before use. Never use the machine with this strap fitted as it
is designed purely to protect the machine during transit.
• Ensure that the switch of the machine is in the ‘OFF’ position before
connecting or disconnecting the power supply.
• Ensure that the extraction hose is securely fitted to the outlet of the
dust extractor.
• Always ensure that the cartridge and paper filter are securely and
correctly positioned before using the dust extractor. Failure to do so will
result in dust being sucked into the motor. Always ensure a good seal
between the filter and motor enclosure.
• Check that the drum filter is in place (certain models only) before
replacing the lid of the machine.
• Check that the dust collection bag (certain models only) is secure and
not damaged. If damaged, replace the collection bag before starting
the machine.
4. Whilst using the dust extractor:
• Do not completely cover the end of the extraction hose as the machine
may be pulled in the direction of the hose.
• Do not attempt to remove the lid assembly from the drum body.
• Do not attempt to use the dust extractor without the extraction hose
fitted to the inlet on the drum body.
• This product is for dry use only and should not be used or stored
outdoors or in wet conditions.
• All Record Power dust extractors are designed solely for use with
wood dust and chippings. Do not use the machine to remove vapours,
fumes, gases or other materials such as plaster dust, as there is a risk
of combustion. Doing so will invalidate the warranty and may result in
damage to the machine or serious injury to the user.
• Do not use the machine to pick up hazardous dust.
• If the hose becomes blocked, switch the machine ‘OFF’ immediately to
prevent any damage to the machine and disconnect from the power
supply before removing the blockage. Never attempt to place your hand
inside the hose or inlet of the dust extractor whilst it is running.
• Do not pick up liquids and scrap metal (such as nails and filings) or any
combustible substance.
• Ensure that the machine is used in a well ventilated area.
5. Avoiding fires:
• Wood dust is combustible and when suspended in the air, it may form a
cloud which can explode if the air concentration is higher than 40g/m³.
• Sparks can smolder in dust for a long time before fire or flame is
detected. If metal contacts metal during operation, immediately switch
the machine ‘OFF’, disconnect the power cable from the mains supply
and wait for the motor to come to a complete stop. Empty the dust into
an approved air tight metal container in case of spark. Remedy the metal
to metal contact problem before resuming operation.
• Do not operate the dust extractor in environments containing explosive
risks, such as pilot lights, open flames, vapours, gases or high levels of
airborne dust.
6. Maintenance:
• Always switch the machine ‘OFF’, disconnect from the power supply and
wait until the motor has completely stopped before carrying out any
routine maintenance such as emptying waste or replacing filters.
• When replacing the filters, keep your hands away from the fan blade
within the motor.
• A paper filter must always be fitted to the cartridge filter as this filters
particles as small as 0.5 microns and provides protection from fine dust
which is most hazardous to health.
• Do not switch the head unit ‘ON’ unless it is attached to the collection
drum or body unit. The centrifugal force created by the motor will cause
the head to rotate very quickly and can cause serious personal injury.
• If the machine becomes hot during use this means the filters are blocked
and need to be cleaned. Any damage to the machine caused by blocked
filters will not be covered under warranty.
7. The elimination or control of risks from wood dust is required by the
‘Health & Safety at Work etc. Act 1974’, the ‘Provision & Use of Work
Equipment Regulations 1998’ and the ‘Control of Substances Hazardous
to Health (COSHH) Regulations 2002’. We recommend that you study and
follow these regulations.
Further guidance can be obtained from The Health & Safety Executive and
their website www.hse.gov.uk.
3. Additional Health & Safety for High Filtration Dust Extractors
• The use of any accessory or attachment, other than those recommended in
this instruction manual, or recommended by our Company may present a risk
of personal injury or damage to the machine and invalidation of the warranty.
32. Have your machine repaired by a qualified person
• This machine complies with the relevant safety rules and standards
appropriate to its type when used in accordance with these instructions and
with all of the standard safety guards and equipment in place. Only qualified
persons using original spare parts should carry out repairs. Failure to do this
may result in considerable danger to the user and invalidation of warranty.
33. Caution! Motor may become hot during use
• It is normal for motors on some machines to become hot to the touch
during use. Avoid touching the motor directly when in use.

Restarting of All Machines
In the Event of a Blockage
If a blockage in the collection hose of the machine occurs, switch it off
immediately by pressing the power switch to the off position and wait for the
machine to come to a complete stop before proceeding further.
Unplug the machine from the power source and remove the blockage from the
collection hose. To re-start the machine press the power switch to the
on position.
In the Event of a Power Failure
In the event of a power failure, first turn the power switch to the off position
and then locate and rectify the source of the failure. If the fault is within the
power circuit of the workshop, there may be an underlying cause (circuit
overload etc.) that should be investigated by a qualified electrician, before
attempting to restore the power source.
Once the power is restored, the machine can be re-started by pressing the
switch to the on position.
7. Assembly & Operation of DX5000
• Determine the position of the extractor on a wall
close to a power socket.
• This needs to be at a convenient height,
allowing sufficient room under the bottom of
the bag retention bar (when the extractor is fully
assembled) to remove the polythene sack for
emptying.
• For ease of installation, it is advisable to remove
the wall bracket from the body before fixing the
bracket to the wall.
PLEASE NOTE: The clamp which fixes the hood
assembly to the drum body of your machine is fitted
to protect the unit during transit and should not
be used once the extractor is installed.
1. First remove the hood unit, and unscrew the
bracket from the body.
2. Mark out the position of the holes through the
bracket onto the wall.
3. Drill and plug the wall to accept suitable screws,
(the holes in the bracket are designed to take No.
10 gauge wood screws) and screw the bracket to
the wall.
4. Refit the body to the bracket.
5. Attach the hose cuff supplied to one end of the
flexible hose and fit to the machine inlet.
6. Place one of the cartridge filters inside a paper
filter bag and fold the top edges of the paper bag
down inside the cartridge. Push this onto one of
the motor bodies, making sure that it is securely
positioned.
7. Repeat this procedure to fit the other cartridge
and paper filter to the other motor.
8. Open out the large cloth filter bag, position this
inside the extractor body and place the elasticated
waistband of the bag over the neck of the body.
9. Replace the hood unit.
10. Open a polythene bag and position it up around
the cage part of the body and under the collection
bag clamp. Ensure the seam of the polythene bag is
in line with the crossbar at the bottom of the cage.
11. At this point the polythene bag may be held
in place by switching on the extractor so that the
suction of the machine will hold the sack in place
whilst the retaining strap is fastened.
12. Fasten the strap clamp.
Please Note: When the unit is first switched on,
the empty polythene sack will be drawn up towards
the machine, however, when dust starts to collect in
the bag it will lower into its normal position.
Important
• Always ensure that the end of the 102 mm
diameter flexible hose is not completely covered or
blocked or the machine may be ‘pulled’ suddenly
towards the end of the hose (see Fig 5.1).
• The 102mm diameter flexible hose is intended
mainly for connection to woodworking machinery
to collect sawdust and shavings.
• For cleaning purposes we recommend the use of
the 32mm diameter flexible hose
(optional extra - part no. DX1500B)
• If the 102mm diameter hose is used for cleaning
always ensure that the hose is angled as
shown in Fig. 7.1.
Fig. 7.1
The RSDE2/A is fitted with an automatic switching function which allows the extractor to be started
automatically when a power tool is connected via the 3 pin socket in the head of the extractor.
To use the extractor in manual mode, the selector switch ‘A’ should be in the position marked ‘MANUAL’. The
extractor is then operated as normal by using the ON/OFF switch ‘B’ (Fig. 6.1).
To use automatic switching function, first ensure that the ON/OFF switch ‘B’ is in the OFF position. Insert
the 3 pin plug from the power tool in to the socket ‘C’ in the head of the extractor, and change the selector
switch ‘A’ to the ‘AUTOMATIC’ position (Fig. 6.1).
Ensure that the hose from the extractor is connected to the dust outlet on the power tool being used and
then change the ON/OFF switch ‘B’ to the ON position. The dust extractor will not start until the power tool
is switched on and will continue to run until the power tool is switched off.
PLEASE NOTE: It is normal for the extractor to continue to run for up to 20 seconds after the power tool is
switched off in order to clear any remaining waste from the hose. Do not change the position of either of the
switches on the extractor until the automatic switching process has completed its cycle.
PLEASE NOTE: It is important that the auto switching function is not overload by running power tools that
exceed the maximum power capacity of the unit. The maximum input rating of any power tool used with this
equipment should not exceed 1900 Watts. The total loading for the extractor and the power tools combined
must not exceed 13 amps.

9. Maintenance
Emptying the drum
1. Remove the head unit from the drum.
2. Leaving the cloth filter in place (DX4000 & DX5000 only), carefully shake the filter and leave for a few
minutes for the dust inside the drum to settle.
3. Remove the cloth filter from the drum.
4. Empty the drum.
5. The cloth filter can be cleaned if required (see below), and refitted.
6. Replace the head unit.
Replacing filters
The filters should be inspected every time the unit is emptied and particularly if any reduction in
performance is noted.
The cloth filter can be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner, and occasionally washed in warm water.
The paper filters trap fine dust, and to prevent becoming clogged should be renewed regularly
(part no. DX1500E).
The cartridge filters should be cleaned at the same time, and should be renewed annually (part no. DX1500F).
To change the filters:
1. Remove the head unit.
2. The cartridge filter is contained within the paper filter bag, these can be removed by simply pulling
them free.
3. The paper filter bag can be removed from around the cartridge filter and disposed of.
4. The cartridge filter can then be carefully cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, or renewed if required.
5. Place the cartridge filter inside a new paper filter bag and fold the top edges of the
paper filter bag down inside the cartridge, noting not to fold the edges any more than 50mm inside the
cartridge filter.
6. Replace the filters into the machine by pressing them back into position.
7. Replace the head unit.
Renewing motor brushes
The motor carbon brushes should not need replacing for at least 1000 hours. These are contained within
the horizontal housings on top of the motor. To fit new carbon brushes (Fig 9.1), first ensure the machine is
switched off and disconnected from the power supply, and, having removed the machine lid and located the
brush housings, undo the two screws that secure the carbon brushes (Fig 9.2). Remove the wires connecting
the carbon brushes to the motor electrics. Insert a new brush onto each side of the motor housing and screw
into place to secure and re-connect the wires. When replacing motor brushes, take care not to allow dust, oil,
water etc. to get into the motor.
Please Note: Before any type of maintenance is carried out, it is important
that the machine is switched off and disconnected from the power supply.

10. Dust Extraction
The Importance Of Dust Extraction
Before the machine is started, ensure that adequate dust extraction
provisions have been installed. Dust extraction is extremely important not
only for health and safety but also for the correct upkeep of the machine.
Saw dust can cause the machine not to operate properly or even fail
completely. By keeping the machine free of large amounts of waste the
performance will be optimised.
If a large amounts of MDF or toxic woods are to be cut we recommend that
there is a good ventilation system in place and that in addition to proper
extraction a mask or respirator be worn as minimum protection.

12. Electrical Connection & Wiring Diagrams
RSDE1 & RSDE2
Machines supplied for use in the UK are fitted with a 3 pin plug conforming
to BS1363, fitted with a fuse conforming to BS1362 and appropriate to the
current rating of the machine.
Machines supplied for use in other countries within the European Union are
fitted with a 2 pin Schuko plug conforming to CEE 7/7.
Machines supplied for use in Australia & New Zealand are fitted with a 3 pin
plug conforming to AS/NZS3112.
In all cases, if the original plug or connector has to be replaced for any
reason, the wires within the mains power cable are colour coded as follows:
230 V (Single Phase)
Brown: Live (L)
Blue: Neutral (N)
Green and Yellow: Earth (E)
The wire coloured brown must always be connected to the terminal marked
‘L’ or coloured red.
The wire coloured blue must always be connected to the terminal marked ‘N’
or coloured black.
The wire coloured green and yellow must always be connected to the
terminal marked ‘E’ or with the earth symbol:
or coloured green / green and yellow.
It is important that the machine is effectively earthed. Some machines will be
clearly marked with the double insulated logo:
In this case there will not be an earth wire within the circuit.
In the case of the BS1363 plug for use in the UK, always ensure that it is
fitted with a fuse conforming to BS1362 appropriate to the rating of the
machine. If replacing the original fuse, always fit a fuse of equivalent rating
to the original. Never fit a fuse of a higher rating than the original. Never
modify the fuse or fuse holder to accept fuses of a different type or size.
Where the current rating of the machine exceeds 13 A at 230 V, or if the
machine is designated for use on a 400 V 3 phase supply a connector
conforming to BS4343 (CEE17 / IEC60309) will be used.
230 V machines will be fitted with a blue 3 pin connector. The wiring for this
type of this connector will be the same as shown above.
400 V, 3 phase machines will be fitted with a red 4 or 5 pin connector. The
wiring for this type of connector is as shown below:
400 V (3 phase)
Brown: Live (L1)
Black: Live (L2)
Grey: Live (L 3)
Blue: Neutral (N)
Green and Yellow: Earth (E)
The wire coloured brown must always be connected to the terminal
marked ‘L1’.
The wire coloured black must always be fitted to the terminal
marked ‘L2’.
The wire coloured grey must always be connected to the terminal
marked ‘L3’.
The wire coloured blue must always be connected to the terminal
marked ‘N’ or coloured black.
The wire coloured green and yellow must always be connected to the
terminal marked ‘E’ or with the earth symbol
If in doubt about the connection of the electrical supply, always consult a
qualified electrician.
