Double insulation

Your product is double insulated. This means
that all external metal parts are electrically
isolated from the power supply. This is
achieved by placing an extra insulation
barrier between the electrical and
mechanical parts. Double insulation means
greater electrical safety and obviates the
necessity of having your product earthed.
Electrical safety (UK only)
Your product should always be switched off at the
mains before disconnecting any plug and socket
connector or extension cables.
Fuse replacement
If your product is supplied with cable, fitted with a
non-re-wireable plug:
•
The plug is fitted with a 13 amp fuse which is
the recommended fuse for your product.
•
Only use replacement fuses which are approved
to BS1362.
•
When changing the fuse in your plug, always
ensure the fuse cover is refitted. If the fuse cover
is missing or damaged do not use the plug.
ENGLISH
Note: Fuses do not give personal protection
against electric shock.
Plug replacement
•
Disconnect the plug from the supply.
•
Cut off the plug and dispose of immediately.
Insertion of a detached plug into a 13 amp
socket outlet may result in electric shock.
•
Only fit BS1363A approved plugs fitted with the
correctly rated fuse.
•
The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked
at the connection points of most good quality
plugs. Attach the wires to their respective
points in the plug (see above). Brown is for
"Live" (L) and blue is for "Neutral" (N).
•
Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug
ensure that the cable restraint is holding the
outer sheath on the cable firmly and that the two
leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws.

Note: Do not wire an extension cable directly into
your machine yourself. Instead, take your product to
your nearest Black & Decker authorised repair agent.
Increased safety can be obtained by having a
qualified electrician install a high sensitivity (30mA)
circuit breaker in the house wiring. If you do not have
such a circuit breaker installed, or you do not wish to
have one installed, then we strongly recommend that
the electrical power to the machine be supplied
through a high sensitivity residual current device
(RCD). The RCD is designed to provide a high
degree of personal protection against harmful
electric current should fault conditions occur.
