Environmental and Safety Consideration
Important
The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp
plug and 13 amp fuse. When you change or examine the fuse, you must re-fit
the correct 13 amp fuse. You then need to replace the fuse cover. If you have
lost the fuse cover, do not use the plug until you get another fuse cover from
the people who sold you the machine.
The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK. However, some build-
ings (mainly old ones) do not have normal 13 amp plug sockets. You need to
buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not remove the moulded plug.
Warning
If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it
straight away. You cannot rewire the plug or
you may get an electric shock if you put it into a
socket.
Important warning: You must earth this machine.
The wires in the mains lead use the following colour code:
Green and Yellow : Earth
Blue : Neutral
Brown : Live
If the wires in the mains lead do not match the colours marked in your plug, do
the following:
You must connect the blue wire to the pin which is marked with the letter ‘N’ or
coloured black.
You must connect the brown wire to the pin which is marked with the letter ‘L’
or coloured red.
You must have a 13 amp fuse in the plug, adaptor, or at the distribution board.
