1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL SAFETY. p WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to read, understand and comply with the following:
1.1.
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 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 any 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 all electrical connections to ensure that none is 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.
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 damage leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired by a qualified electrician.
1.1.10. NOTE: THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED FOR USE ON AN INDUSTRIAL 30 AMP SUPPLY WHICH MUST BE INSTALLED
BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. It may be possible to operate the washer from a domestic 13 amp outlet under the following conditions:
The mains supply must conform to IEE Wiring Regulations and the spur used to run the washer must not include any socket which
could be used for another appliance. The distance of the socket from the mains distribution board must not exceed 5 metres.
An extension lead must not be used.
1.1.11. Note: Under certain conditions your washer will draw more than 13 amps. Consequently we recommend a 30 amp supply and suggest
that a direct round pin plug/socket is installed by a qualified electrician. In the event
that you choose to use a domestic 13 amp supply and ever have to replace the
non-rewireable 13 amp plug supplied we provide the plug wiring instructions as
follows (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’.
d) Ensure the plug is fitted with a 13 amp fuse.
After wiring, check there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly
connected, that the cable external insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and
that the restraint is tight.
NOTE: IF USED ON A DOMESTIC 13 AMP SUPPLY AND THE FUSE REPEATEDLY BLOWS, CONTACT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN TO
INSTALL A 30 AMP SUPPLY.
