1. SAFETY
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to check the following:
Check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure that they are safe before using. Inspect power supply leads, plugs and
all electrical connections for wear and damage. Sealey recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical
products. You may obtain an RCD by contacting your local Sealey dealer.
1.1.1. If the product is used in the course of business duties, it must be maintained in a safe condition and routinely PAT (Portable
Appliance Test) tested.
1.1.2. Electrical safety information, it is important that the following information is read and understood.
1.1.2.1. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
1.1.2.2. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that they are secure.
1.1.2.3. Important: Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is tted with the
correct fuse - see fuse rating in these instructions.
8DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
8DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
8DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Ensure that any faulty item is repaired or is
replaced immediately by a qualied electrician.
1.1.2.4. This product is tted with a BS1363/A 13 Amp 3 pin plug.
1.1.2.5. If the cable or plug is damaged during use, switch off the electricity supply and remove from use.

c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
1.1.2.8. Ensure that the cable outer sheath extends inside the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
Sealey recommend that repairs are carried out by a qualied electrician.
1.1.2.9. 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 2.5mm² section cable.

6.1.2. Identify the tracking knob (g 7) each turn of the knob will only render a slight adjustment to the belt tracking.
6.1.3. Rotate the tracking knob clockwise to move the belt to the left and anti-clockwise to move belt to the right.
6.1.4. Rotate the belt by hand whilst turning the tracking knob to effect movement.
6.1.5. To ensure the belt is aligned, connect the machine to the mains power supply, turn the machine “On”, and then “Off”, whilst adjusting
the tracking knob to effect further ne adjustments.

Note: One 360° turn on the adjusting rod will move the belt roller in or out by approximately 2.5mm.
We recommend small adjustments are made by turning the adjusting rod only to the degree that access will allow the spanner to
move and then test the belt tension before making further adjustments.
