1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY. pWARNING! It is the users responsibility to read, understand and comply as
follows. 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 also 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
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 a business premises,
to be tested by a qualified Electrician at least once a year by using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
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 doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power
supply. See 1.1.1. & 1.1.2. 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 all electrical connections for wear and damage,
especially power connections, to ensure that none are loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply to be
used, and check that plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse. A 13Amp plug may require a fuse
smaller than 13Amps for certain products (subject to 1.1.10. below) see fuse rating below.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the powered appliance by its power supply lead.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged leads, plugs or connections.
Immediately replace or have repaired by a qualified Electrician.
A U.K. 3 pin plug with ASTA/BS approval is fitted. In case
of damage, cut off and fit a new plug according to the following
instructions (discard old plug safely). (UK only - see diagram at right).
Ensure the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin plug.
a) Connect the green/yellow earth wire to the earth terminal E.
b) Connect the brown live wire to live terminal L.
c) Connect the blue neutral wire to the neutral terminal N.
After wiring, check there are no bare wires, that all wires
have been correctly connected and that the wire restraint is tight.
Double insulated products are often fitted with live (BROWN)
and neutral (BLUE) wires only. Double insulated products are always marked
with this symbol . Check you model carefully to see which type of product
your have. To re-wire, a double insulated item, connect the brown and blue
wires as indicated above. DO NOT connect brown or blue to the earth terminal.
1.1.10. Cable extension reels. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully
unwound before connection. A cable reel with an RCD fitted is recommended
since any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected.
The section of the cable on the cable reel is important. We recommend
that at least 1.5mm2section cable but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the cable reel is suitable
for this product and for others that may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of
2.5mm2section cable.
