Installation
Electrical installation
Pluggable equipment
Pluggable equipment must be installed near an easily accessible socket outlet.
Permanently wired equipment - Isolator requirements
Permanently connected equipment must have a readily accessible disconnect
device incorporated in the fixed wiring such as an isolator or circuit breaker with at
least 3mm contact separation.
The isolator MUST NOT be installed into the flexible power cable supplied with the
unit.
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. NO USER SERVICEABLE
PARTS. REFER TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL FOR
SERVICE.
CAUTION: The power cable must be connected to an earth-grounded
electrical outlet. The electrical supply must have a circuit breaker with an
appropriate rating to protect from over-current conditions.
For your protection, all electrical (110V or 230V) equipment used out of
doors or in wet or damp conditions should be supplied from a correctly
fused power source and protected by an approved ground fault protection
device (RCD, GFCI etc.)
IF IN DOUBT SEEK ADVICE FROM A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Safe handling of equipment with batteries
Wet conditions
Under wet conditions, the plug must be connected to the final branch circuit via an
appropriate socket / receptacle designed for washdown use.
Installations within the USA should use a cover that meets NEMA 3R
specifications as required by the National Electrical Code under section 410-57.
This allows the unit to be plugged in with a rain tight cover fitted over the plug.
Installations within Europe must use a socket which provides a minimum of IP56
protection to the plug / cable assembly. Care must be taken to make sure that the
degree of protection provided by the socket is suitable for the environment.
Routine maintenance
Always turn off the machine and isolate from the power supply before starting any
routine maintenance to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
Make sure that it is placed securely on a flat and level surface.
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
ATTENTION: Il y a danger d'explosion s'il y a remplacement incorrect de la
batterie, remplacer uniquement avec une batterie du même type ou d'un
type équivalent recommandé par le constructeur. Mettre au rebut les
batteries usagées conformément aux instructions du fabricant.
IMPORTANT: This equipment must be routinely checked for proper
operation and calibration.
Application and usage will determine the frequency of calibration required
for safe operation.
Cleaning the machine
