This can result in severe personal injury and damage to property.
► Place devices on a solid, level surface in such a way that they remain stable.
The venting duct is a very important safety device. When choosing the device location, en-
sure that the cooling air can enter and exit unhindered through the air ducts on the front
and back of the device. Any electroconductive metallic dust (e.g. from grinding work) must
not be allowed to get sucked into the device.
Mains connection
The devices are designed for the mains voltage specified on the rating plate. The fuse pro-
tection required for the mains lead can be found in the "Technical data" section. If there is
no mains cable or mains plug on your device, fit one that conforms to national standards.
An inadequately dimensioned electrical installation can cause serious damage.
The mains lead and its fuse must be dimensioned to suit the local power supply. The tech-
nical data shown on the rating plate applies.
