WARNING! It is the users 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 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 dealer. You must also read and understand the following
instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.3.1. 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).
1.3.2. 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.
1.3.3. DO 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).
1.3.4. DO ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload. t
