1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY.
WARNING! 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 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
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 and plugs for wear and damage and inspect connections to ensure that
none are loose.
1.1.6. 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 13 amp plug may require a fuse smaller than 13 amps for certain
products, see recommended fuse rating to the right.
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 to the 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'.
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 are fitted with live (BROWN) and neutral (BLUE)
wires only. Double insulated products are always marked with this symbol
To re-wire, connect the brown and blue wires as indicated above. DO NOT connect the 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.
