Electric components
Danger
 Never touch the mains plug and the
socket with wet hands.
 Check the power cord with mains plug
for damage prior to every use. Immedi-
ately have damaged power cord re-
placed by an authorised customer ser-
vice / electrician. Do not operate an ap-
pliance if the power cord is damaged.
 All current-conducting parts in the work-
ing area must be protected against jet
water.
 The mains plug and the coupling of an
extension cable must be watertight and
must never lie in water. Moreover, the
coupling may never lie on the ground.
The use of cable reels that ensure that
the sockets are at least 60 mm above
the ground is recommended.
 Make sure that the power cord or exten-
sion cable is not damaged by running
over, pinching, dragging or the like. Pro-
tect the power cords from heat, oil, and
sharp edges.

to alternating current. The voltage must
correspond with the type plate of the
appliance.

to an electric supply that has been in-
stalled by an electrician in accordance
with IEC 60364.
 Unsuitable electrical extension cables
can be hazardous. Only use electrical
extension cables outdoors which have
16
been approved and labelled for this pur-
pose and have an adequate cable
cross-section: 1 -10 m: 1.5 mm
m: 2.5 mm
 Always fully unreel the extension cable
from the cable drum.
 For safety reasons, we recommend that
