2. General Health & Safety Guidance

Ensure that you carefully read and fully understand the instructions in this manual before assembly, installation and use of this product. Keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING: for your own safety, do not attempt to operate this machine until it is completely assembled and installed according to these instructions.

WARNING: When using any machine, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury.

Safe Operation

1. Use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

• The operation of any machine can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Protective eyewear or other suitable eye protection or face shield should be used at all times. Everyday spectacles only have impact resistant lenses. They are not protective eyewear and do not give additional lateral protection.

• Use respiratory protective equipment (dust mask etc.) if the machining operation creates dust. Exposure to high levels of dust created by machining hardwoods, softwoods and man made composite boards can result in serious health problems. Some imported hardwoods give off highly irritating dust, which can cause a burning sensation. The use of respiratory protective equipment should not be seen as an alternative to controlling the risk of exposure at source by using adequate dust extraction equipment.

• The use of ear plugs or ear defenders is recommended when the machine is in use, particularly if the noise level exceeds 85 dB.

• Wear suitable protective gloves when handling cutting tools or blades.

Gloves should NOT be worn when using the machine as they can be caught in moving parts of the machine.

• Non-slip safety footwear is recommended when using the machine and handling large work pieces.

2. Dress appropriately

• Do not wear loose clothing, neckties or jewellery; they can be caught in moving parts of the machine.

• Roll up long sleeves above the elbow.

• Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

3. Safety warnings

• Find and read any warning labels on the machine.

• It is important that any labels bearing health and safety warnings are not removed, defaced or covered. Replacement labels can be obtained by contacting our Customer Service Department.

4. Familiarise yourself with the machine

• If you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of this machine, obtain advice from your supervisor, instructor, or other qualified person or contact your retailer for information on training courses. Do not use this machine until adequate training has been undertaken.

5. Take care when moving or positioning the machine

• Some machines can be very heavy. Ensure the floor of the area in which the machine is to be used is capable of supporting the machine.

• The machine and its various components can be heavy.

Always adopt a safe lifting technique and seek assistance when lifting heavy components. In some cases it may be necessary to use mechanical handling equipment to position the machine within the work area.

• Some machines have optional wheel kits available to allow them to be manoeuvred around the workshop as required. Care should be taken to install these according to the instructions provided.

• Due to the nature of the design of some machines the centre of gravity will be high making them unstable when moved. Extreme care should be taken when moving any machine.

• If transportation of the machine is required then all precautions relating to the installation and handling of the machine apply. In addition, ensure that any vehicles or manual handling equipment used for transportation are of adequate specification.

6. The machine should be level and stable at all times

4

• When using a leg stand or cabinet base that is designed to be fitted to the machine, always ensure that it is securely fastened to the machine using the fixings provided.

• If the machine is suitable to be used on a workbench, ensure that the workbench is well constructed and capable of withstanding the weight of the machine. The machine should always be securely fastened to the workbench with appropriate fixings.

• Where possible, floor standing machines should always be secured to the floor with fixings appropriate to the structure of the floor.

• The floor surface should be sound and level. All of the feet of the machine should make contact with the floor surface. If they do not, either re-locate the machine to a more suitable position or use packing shims between the feet and the floor surface to ensure the machine is stable.

7. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches

• Ensure that all adjusting wrenches and keys are removed before switching the machine ‘ON’. There is a risk of severe personal injury or damage to the machine from airborne objects.

8. Before switching the machine ‘ON’

• Clear the machine table of all objects (tools, scrap pieces etc.)

• Make sure there is no debris between the work piece and the table / work support.

• Ensure that the work piece is not pressed against, or touching the saw blade or cutting tool.

• Check all clamps, work holding devices and fences to ensure that they are secure and cannot move during machining operations.

• Plan the way that you will hold and feed the work piece for the entire machining operation.

9. Whilst machining

• Before starting work, watch the machine while it runs. If it makes an unfamiliar noise or vibrates excessively, switch the machine ‘OFF’ immediately and disconnect it from the power supply. Do not restart until finding and correcting the source of the problem.

10. Keep the work area clear

• Working clearances can be thought of as the distances between machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine without limitation. Consider existing and anticipated machine needs, size of material to be processed through each machine and space for auxiliary stands and/or work tables. Also consider the relative position of each machine to one another for efficient material handling. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient room to safely operate your machines in any foreseeable operation.

• Cluttered work areas and benches create the risk of accidents. Keep benches clear and tidy away tools that are not in use.

• Ensure that the floor area is kept clean and clear of any dust and debris that may create trip or slip hazards.

11. Consider the work area environment

• Do not expose the machine to rain or damp conditions.

• Keep the work area well lit and ensure that there is artificial lighting available when there is insufficient natural light to effectively light the work area. Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain.

• Do not use the machine in explosive environments eg. in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.

• The presence of high levels of dust created by machining wood can present a risk of fire or explosion. Always use dust extraction equipment to minimise the risk.

12. Keep other persons away (and pets)

• The machine is designed to be used by one person only.

• Do not let persons, especially children, touch the machine or extension cable (if used) and keep visitors away from the work area.

• Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn the power supply off and do not leave the machine unattended until it comes to a complete stop.

• If the work area is to be left unattended, all machinery should be switched ‘OFF’ and isolated from the mains power supply.

13. Store machines safely when not in use

2. General Health & Safety Guidance - cont.

• When not in use, machines should be stored in a dry place, out of reach of children. Do not allow persons unfamiliar with these instructions or with the machine to operate it.

14. Do not overreach

• Choose a working position that allows your body to remain balanced and feed the work piece in to the machine without overreaching.

• Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

15. Electrical supply

• Electrical circuits should be dedicated to each machine or large enough to handle combined motor amp loads. Power outlets should be located near each machine so that power or extension cables are not obstructing hightraffic areas. Observe local electrical guidelines for proper installation of new lighting, power outlets, or circuits.

• The machine must be connected to an earthed power supply.

• The power supply must be equipped with a circuit breaker that provides short circuit, overload and earth leakage protection.

• The voltage of the machine must correspond to the voltage of the mains power supply.

• The mains plug fitted to the machine should always match the power outlet.

Do not modify the plug in any way. If a replacement plug is required it should be fitted by a competent person and of the correct type and rating for the machine.

• If you are unsure about any electrical connections always consult a qualified electrician.

16. Avoid unintentional starting of the machine

• Most machines are fitted with a no-volt release (NVR) switch to prevent unintentional starting. If in doubt always ensure the machine switch is in the ‘OFF’ position before connecting it to the power supply. This means the machine will not automatically start up after a power cut or switching on of the power supply, unless you first reset the start switch.

17. Outdoor use

• Your machine should not be used outdoors.

18. Extension cables

• Whenever possible, the use of extension cables is not recommended. If the use of an extension cable is unavoidable, then it should have a minimum core cross section of 2.5mm² and limited to a maximum length of 3 metres.

• Extension cables should be routed away from the direct working area to prevent a trip hazard.

19. Guard against electric shock

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes and radiators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

20. Always work within the machine’s intended capacities

• Operator safety and machine performance are seriously adversely affected if attempts to make the machine perform beyond its limits are made.

21. Do not abuse the power cable

• Never pull the power cable to disconnect it from the power socket. Always use the plug.

• Keep the power cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges.

• Do not use the power cable for carrying or moving the machine.

22. Secure the work piece

• Ensure that the work piece is securely held before starting to machine it.

• When working within 300 mm of the machining area, always use a push stick to feed the work piece in to the blade or cutting tool. The push stick should have a minimum length of 400 mm. If the push stick becomes damaged, replace it immediately.

• Use extra supports (roller support stands etc.) for any work pieces large enough to tip when not held down to the table top.

• Do not use another person as a substitute for a table extension, or as additional support for a work piece that is longer or wider than the basic table, or to help feed, support, or pull the work piece.

• Do not attempt to machine more than one work piece at a time.

• When feeding the work piece towards the blade or cutting tool never position your hands in direct line of the cutting path. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand or fingers to move into the machining area.

23. Stay alert

• Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alertness at all times when the machine is being used.

• Use all machines with extreme care and do not use the machine when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

24. Use the correct tool for the job

• Do not use the machine for any purpose other than which it was designed.

• When selecting replacement cutting tools and blades, always ensure that they are designed to cut the material that you intend to use them for. If in any doubt seek further advice from the manufacturer.

25. Connect dust extraction equipment

• Always use dust extraction equipment. The dust extractor should be of suitable size and capacity for the machine that it is connected to and have a filtration level appropriate to the type of waste being collected. Refer to the relevant section of the manual for details of the specific dust extraction requirements for this machine.

• The dust extractor should be switched ‘ON’ before starting the machine that it is connected to. The dust extractor should be left running for 30 seconds after the last machining operation is complete in order to clear any residual waste from the machine.

26. Ensure that the machine is correctly guarded

• Never use the machine if any of the standard safety guards and equipment are removed or damaged.

• Some machines incorporate safety interlocks to prevent the machine from being used without the guards in place. Never attempt to bypass or modify the interlocks to allow the machine to be used without the guards in place.

27. Maintain your machine with care

• This manual gives clear instructions on installation, set up and operation of the machine and also details any routine and preventative maintenance that should be performed periodically by the user.

• Remember always to switch off and unplug the machine from the power supply before carrying out any setting up or maintenance operations.

• Follow any instructions for the maintenance of accessories and consumables.

• Do not use compressed air to clean the machine. Always use a brush to dislodge dust in places that are awkward to reach and a dust extractor to collect the waste.

• Inspect electric cables periodically and, if damaged, have them replaced by an authorised service facility or qualified electrician.

• Inspect extension cables (if used) periodically and replace if damaged.

28. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean

• Correctly maintained cutting tools are easier to control and less likely to bind.

• Cutting tools and blades can become hot during use. Take extreme care when handling them and always allow them to cool before changing, adjusting or sharpening them.

29. Disconnect the machine from the power supply

• When not in use, before servicing, changing blades etc. always disconnect the machine from the power supply.

30. Check for damaged parts

• Before each use of the machine, it should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function.

• Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other conditions that may affect the operation of the machine.

• A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified person unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual.

• Do not use the machine if the switch does not turn the machine ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’.

• Have defective switches replaced by a qualified person.

31. Warning!

3. Additional Health & Safety for High Filtration Dust Extractors

1. Safe Operation

• Floor standing dust extractors should be positioned on a level floor.

Ensure that there is no debris between the base of the extractor and the floor.

• Wall mounted dust extractors, or those used with an optional wall mounting bracket, should be fixed to a solid block or brick wall using suitable fixings that will withstand the weight of the machine. If fixing to a studded wall, care should be taken to locate the fixings in to the studding of the wall. Plasterboard alone is not strong enough to withstand the weight of the machine.

• When wall mounting the dust extractor always consider it’s gross weight when full of waste in order to select the correct type of fixings.

• Never place the dust extractor on a raised surface or workbench.

• In all cases, position the dust extractor as close as possible to the application it is to be used for.

• This product is for dry use only and should not be used or stored outdoors or in wet conditions.

• All Record Power dust extractors are designed solely for use with wood dust and chippings. Do not use the machine to remove vapours, fumes, gases or other materials such as plaster dust, as there is a risk of combustion. Doing so will invalidate the warranty and may result in damage to the machine or serious injury to the user.

• Do not use the machine to pick up hazardous dust.

• If the hose becomes blocked, switch the machine ‘OFF’ immediately to prevent any damage to the machine and disconnect from the power supply before removing the blockage. Never attempt to place your hand inside the hose or inlet of the dust extractor whilst it is running.

• Do not pick up liquids and scrap metal (such as nails and filings) or any combustible substance.

• Ensure that the machine is used in a well ventilated area.

• It may be necessary to increase the length or reduce the diameter of the extraction hose to suit the application. Never over stretch the hose to make it reach.

• The strength of suction alone may cause the dust extractor to be pulled in the direction of the hose, particularly if the hose has been over stretched or if an optional wheel kit is fitted. Never stand directly between the dust extractor and the machine that it is connected to.

2. Familiarise yourself with the machine

• If you are not thoroughly familiar with dust extractors, be aware of the inherent risks due to the way in which these machines work. There are moving parts inside the machine that can cause serious injury. Always strictly follow any safety instructions detailed in the manual when using, emptying or servicing the machine.

3. Before switching the machine ‘ON’:

• Remove the transit strap, which is used to secure the lid assembly to the drum body, before use. Never use the machine with this strap fitted as it is designed purely to protect the machine during transit.

• Ensure that the switch of the machine is in the ‘OFF’ position before connecting or disconnecting the power supply.

5. Avoiding fires:

• Wood dust is combustible and when suspended in the air, it may form a cloud which can explode if the air concentration is higher than 40g/m³.

• Sparks can smolder in dust for a long time before fire or flame is detected. If metal contacts metal during operation, immediately switch the machine ‘OFF’, disconnect the power cable from the mains supply and wait for the motor to come to a complete stop. Empty the dust into an approved air tight metal container in case of spark. Remedy the metal to metal contact problem before resuming operation.

• Do not operate the dust extractor in environments containing explosive risks, such as pilot lights, open flames, vapours, gases or high levels of airborne dust.

6. Maintenance:

• Always switch the machine ‘OFF’, disconnect from the power supply and wait until the motor has completely stopped before carrying out any routine maintenance such as emptying waste or replacing filters.

• When replacing the filters, keep your hands away from the fan blade within the motor.

• A paper filter must always be fitted to the cartridge filter as this filters particles as small as 0.5 microns and provides protection from fine dust which is most hazardous to health.

• Ensure that the extraction hose is securely fitted to the outlet of the dust extractor.

• Always ensure that the cartridge and paper filter are securely and correctly positioned before using the dust extractor. Failure to do so will result in dust being sucked into the motor. Always ensure a good seal between the filter and motor enclosure.

• Check that the drum filter is in place (certain models only) before replacing the lid of the machine.

• Check that the dust collection bag (certain models only) is secure and not damaged. If damaged, replace the collection bag before starting the machine.

• Do not switch the head unit ‘ON’ unless it is attached to the collection drum or body unit. The centrifugal force created by the motor will cause the head to rotate very quickly and can cause serious personal injury.

• If the machine becomes hot during use this means the filters are blocked and need to be cleaned. Any damage to the machine caused by blocked filters will not be covered under warranty.

4. Whilst using the dust extractor:

• Do not completely cover the end of the extraction hose as the machine may be pulled in the direction of the hose.

• Do not attempt to remove the lid assembly from the drum body.

• Do not attempt to use the dust extractor without the extraction hose fitted to the inlet on the drum body.

7. The elimination or control of risks from wood dust is required by the

‘Health & Safety at Work etc. Act 1974’, the ‘Provision & Use of Work

Equipment Regulations 1998’ and the ‘Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 2002’. We recommend that you study and follow these regulations.

Further guidance can be obtained from The Health & Safety Executive and their website www.hse.gov.uk.

The DX4000 and DX5000 feature additional cloth filters for improved filtration and extended filter life.

Fig. 5.1

PLEASE NOTE: The clamp which fixes the hood assembly to the drum body of your machine is fitted to protect the unit during transit and should not be used once the extractor is installed.

1. Attach one end of the flexible hose to the machine inlet and secure with a Jubilee clip or easy fit cuff

(Not supplied with RSDE1).

2. Place the cartridge filter with open end uppermost inside a paper filter-bag and fold the top edges of the paper bag down inside the cartridge, making sure not to fold the edges any more than 50mm inside the cartridge filter. Push this on to the motor body; making sure that it is securely positioned.

3. Position the hood unit on the machine body.

4. After carefully positioning the end of the flexible hose for maximum effect, connect to power outlet.

Your dust extractor is now ready for use.

Important

• Always ensure that the end of the 102mm diameter flexible hose is not completely covered or blocked or the machine may be ‘pulled’ suddenly towards the end of the hose (see Fig 5.1).

• The 102mm diameter flexible hose is intended mainly for connection to woodworking machinery to collect sawdust and shavings.

• For cleaning purposes we recommend the use of the 32mm diameter flexible hose

(optional extra - part no. DX1500B).

• If the 102mm diameter hose is used for cleaning always ensure that the hose is angled as shown in Fig. 5.1.

6. Operation of the RSDE2/A

The RSDE2/A is fitted with an automatic switching function which allows the extractor to be started automatically when a power tool is connected via the 3 pin socket in the head of the extractor.

To use the extractor in manual mode, the selector switch ‘A’ should be in the position marked ‘MANUAL’. The extractor is then operated as normal by using the ON/OFF switch ‘B’ (Fig. 6.1).

To use automatic switching function, first ensure that the ON/OFF switch ‘B’ is in the OFF position. Insert the 3 pin plug from the power tool in to the socket ‘C’ in the head of the extractor, and change the selector switch ‘A’ to the ‘AUTOMATIC’ position (Fig. 6.1).

Ensure that the hose from the extractor is connected to the dust outlet on the power tool being used and then change the ON/OFF switch ‘B’ to the ON position. The dust extractor will not start until the power tool is switched on and will continue to run until the power tool is switched off.

PLEASE NOTE: It is normal for the extractor to continue to run for up to 20 seconds after the power tool is switched off in order to clear any remaining waste from the hose. Do not change the position of either of the switches on the extractor until the automatic switching process has completed its cycle.

PLEASE NOTE: It is important that the auto switching function is not overload by running power tools that exceed the maximum power capacity of the unit. The maximum input rating of any power tool used with this equipment should not exceed 1900 Watts. The total loading for the extractor and the power tools combined must not exceed 13 amps.

7. Assembly & Operation of DX5000

• Determine the position of the extractor on a wall close to a power socket.

• This needs to be at a convenient height, allowing sufficient room under the bottom of the bag retention bar (when the extractor is fully assembled) to remove the polythene sack for emptying.

• For ease of installation, it is advisable to remove the wall bracket from the body before fixing the bracket to the wall.

PLEASE NOTE: The clamp which fixes the hood assembly to the drum body of your machine is fitted to protect the unit during transit and should not

be used once the extractor is installed.

8. Open out the large cloth filter bag, position this inside the extractor body and place the elasticated waistband of the bag over the neck of the body.

9. Replace the hood unit.

10. Open a polythene bag and position it up around the cage part of the body and under the collection bag clamp. Ensure the seam of the polythene bag is in line with the crossbar at the bottom of the cage.

11. At this point the polythene bag may be held in place by switching on the extractor so that the suction of the machine will hold the sack in place whilst the retaining strap is fastened.

12. Fasten the strap clamp.

Please Note: When the unit is first switched on, the empty polythene sack will be drawn up towards the machine, however, when dust starts to collect in the bag it will lower into its normal position.

1. First remove the hood unit, and unscrew the bracket from the body.

2. Mark out the position of the holes through the bracket onto the wall.

3. Drill and plug the wall to accept suitable screws,

(the holes in the bracket are designed to take No.

10 gauge wood screws) and screw the bracket to the wall.

4. Refit the body to the bracket.

5. Attach the hose cuff supplied to one end of the flexible hose and fit to the machine inlet.

6. Place one of the cartridge filters inside a paper filter bag and fold the top edges of the paper bag down inside the cartridge. Push this onto one of the motor bodies, making sure that it is securely positioned.

7. Repeat this procedure to fit the other cartridge and paper filter to the other motor.

Important

• Always ensure that the end of the 102 mm diameter flexible hose is not completely covered or blocked or the machine may be ‘pulled’ suddenly towards the end of the hose (see Fig 5.1).

• The 102mm diameter flexible hose is intended mainly for connection to woodworking machinery to collect sawdust and shavings.

• For cleaning purposes we recommend the use of the 32mm diameter flexible hose

(optional extra - part no. DX1500B)

• If the 102mm diameter hose is used for cleaning always ensure that the hose is angled as shown in Fig. 7.1.

Unplug the machine from the power source and remove the blockage from the collection hose. To re-start the machine press the power switch to the on position.

In the Event of a Power Failure

In the event of a power failure, first turn the power switch to the off position and then locate and rectify the source of the failure. If the fault is within the power circuit of the workshop, there may be an underlying cause (circuit overload etc.) that should be investigated by a qualified electrician, before attempting to restore the power source.

Once the power is restored, the machine can be re-started by pressing the switch to the on position.

Please Note: Before any type of maintenance is carried out, it is important that the machine is switched off and disconnected from the power supply.

Emptying the drum

1. Remove the head unit from the drum.

2. Leaving the cloth filter in place (DX4000 & DX5000 only), carefully shake the filter and leave for a few minutes for the dust inside the drum to settle.

3. Remove the cloth filter from the drum.

i

4. Empty the drum.

5. The cloth filter can be cleaned if required (see below), and refitted.

6. Replace the head unit.

i

Replacing filters

The filters should be inspected every time the unit is emptied and particularly if any reduction in performance is noted.

The cloth filter can be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner, and occasionally washed in warm water.

The paper filters trap fine dust, and to prevent becoming clogged should be renewed regularly

(part no. DX1500E).

The cartridge filters should be cleaned at the same time, and should be renewed annually (part no. DX1500F).

Fig. 9.1

i

To change the filters:

1. Remove the head unit.

2. The cartridge filter is contained within the paper filter bag, these can be removed by simply pulling them free.

3. The paper filter bag can be removed from around the cartridge filter and disposed of.

4. The cartridge filter can then be carefully cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, or renewed if required.

5. Place the cartridge filter inside a new paper filter bag and fold the top edges of the paper filter bag down inside the cartridge, noting not to fold the edges any more than 50mm inside the cartridge filter.

6. Replace the filters into the machine by pressing them back into position.

7. Replace the head unit.

Renewing motor brushes

The motor carbon brushes should not need replacing for at least 1000 hours. These are contained within the horizontal housings on top of the motor. To fit new carbon brushes (Fig 9.1), first ensure the machine is switched off and disconnected from the power supply, and, having removed the machine lid and located the

i

the carbon brushes to the motor electrics. Insert a new brush onto each side of the motor housing and screw into place to secure and re-connect the wires. When replacing motor brushes, take care not to allow dust, oil, water etc. to get into the motor.

10. Dust Extraction

The Importance Of Dust Extraction

Before the machine is started, ensure that adequate dust extraction provisions have been installed. Dust extraction is extremely important not only for health and safety but also for the correct upkeep of the machine.

Saw dust can cause the machine not to operate properly or even fail completely. By keeping the machine free of large amounts of waste the performance will be optimised.

If a large amounts of MDF or toxic woods are to be cut we recommend that there is a good ventilation system in place and that in addition to proper extraction a mask or respirator be worn as minimum protection.

12. Electrical Connection & Wiring Diagrams

Machines supplied for use in the UK are fitted with a 3 pin plug conforming to BS1363, fitted with a fuse conforming to BS1362 and appropriate to the current rating of the machine.

Machines supplied for use in other countries within the European Union are fitted with a 2 pin Schuko plug conforming to CEE 7/7.

Machines supplied for use in Australia & New Zealand are fitted with a 3 pin plug conforming to AS/NZS3112.

In all cases, if the original plug or connector has to be replaced for any reason, the wires within the mains power cable are colour coded as follows: machine. If replacing the original fuse, always fit a fuse of equivalent rating to the original. Never fit a fuse of a higher rating than the original. Never modify the fuse or fuse holder to accept fuses of a different type or size.

Where the current rating of the machine exceeds 13 A at 230 V, or if the machine is designated for use on a 400 V 3 phase supply a connector conforming to BS4343 (CEE17 / IEC60309) will be used.

230 V machines will be fitted with a blue 3 pin connector. The wiring for this type of this connector will be the same as shown above.

400 V, 3 phase machines will be fitted with a red 4 or 5 pin connector. The wiring for this type of connector is as shown below:

The wire coloured brown must always be connected to the terminal marked

‘L’ or coloured red.

The wire coloured blue must always be connected to the terminal marked ‘N’ or coloured black.

The wire coloured green and yellow must always be connected to the terminal marked ‘E’ or with the earth symbol: or coloured green / green and yellow.

It is important that the machine is effectively earthed. Some machines will be clearly marked with the double insulated logo:

In this case there will not be an earth wire within the circuit.

In the case of the BS1363 plug for use in the UK, always ensure that it is fitted with a fuse conforming to BS1362 appropriate to the rating of the

The wire coloured brown must always be connected to the terminal marked ‘L1’.
