1.2. MAINS POWER ELECTRICAL SAFETY (In relation to the
battery charger)
 WARNING! It is the owner’s responsibility to check the
following: 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 that 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 with portable
products that are plugged into a supply not protected by an
RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain
an RCD by contacting your dealer. You must also read and
understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical
appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a
qualified person, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at
least once a year.
1.1.2. 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.
1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and the product itself is
safe before connecting to the mains power supply. See 1.3.1.
above and use a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and
overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply leads, plugs and sockets for wear,
damage or loose connections.
1.1.6. Check that the voltage marked on the product is the same as the
power supply to be used and check that the plug is fitted with the
correct capacity fuse.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by attached leads.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull plug from socket by the power cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors.
Immediately have any faulty item repaired or replaced by a
qualified electrician.
