1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS.

USE THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY AND WITH CARE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT IS INTENDED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE

DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY. PLEASE KEEP INSTRUCTIONS SAFE FOR FUTURE USE.

2. INTRODUCTION

The ML2751 Medium Wave IR Panel Dryer is fitted with two 1500W elements, giving an output of 3.0kW. The heating period of each element

is independently controlled by a timer which can be set for up to 30 minutes. The drying elements are adjustable for height and the dryer is

mounted on wheels for stability and ease of movement.

1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY

p WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:

You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other

connectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices.

A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual Current

Device (RCD) is used. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is not protected

by an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified 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.

1.1.1. The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified

electrician, 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 those appliances

and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.

1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. See 1.1.1. and 1.1.2.

and use a Portable Appliance Tester.

1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.

1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all

connections to ensure that none is loose.

1.1.6. Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply

to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.

1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.

1.1.8. DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the 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. When an ASTA/BS approved UK

3 pin plug is damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely.

Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).

a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal E.

b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal L.

c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal N.

d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly

connected, that the cable outer insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and

that the restraint is tight.

Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with

live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires only. To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above -

DO NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.

1.1.10. This product is supplied without a plug fitted. To fit a plug, follow the instructions detailed in paragraph 1.1.9.

1.1.11. If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance

plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm2, but to be absolutely sure that the

capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of

2.5mm2section cable. If extension reel is to be used outdoors, ensure it is marked for outdoor use.

4.1. Allow a 4 - 5 minute flash-off period for excess solvent to evaporate before close positioning of lamp to panel - solvent boil or popping

may occur if panel temperature is raised too rapidly. Remove, or otherwise protect any trim items on, or adjacent to, the panel to prevent

possible distortion.

4.2. Position the lamps approximately 500mm from the panel, ensuring that the knobs (7) have been firmly tightened when the desired

positions have been achieved.

4.3. Paint-to-lamp distance and heating time are dependent on a number of factors including paint type and workshop conditions and are best

based on experience, however guidelines are as follows:
