Connecting To Power Supply; Switching On - Stihl RE 108 Gebrauchsanleitung

Connecting to Power Supply

The voltage and frequency of the
machine (see rating plate) must match
the voltage and frequency of the power
connection.
The minimum fuse protection of the
power connection must comply with the
specifications – see "Specifications".
The machine must be connected to the
power supply via an earth-leakage
circuit breaker to disconnect the power
supply if the differential current to earth
exceeds 30 mA for 30 ms.
The power connection must correspond
to IEC 60364-1 and relevant national
regulations.
When the machine is switched on,
voltage fluctuations that occur under
unfavorable mains conditions (high
power line impedance) may negatively
affect other connected electrical
appliances. Trouble is not anticipated at
power line impedances less than
0.15 Ω.
Depending on the supply voltage and
cord length, the minimum conductor
cross section of the extension cord must
be as follows:
Cord length Minimum cross
section
220 V – 240 V:
up to 20 m 1.5 mm
20 m to 50 m 2.5 mm
100 V – 127 V:
up to 10 m AWG 14 / 2.0 mm
10 m to 30 m AWG 12 / 3.5 mm

NOTICE
The machine may only be switched on
when the water intake hose is connected
and the water supply has been turned
on. Otherwise the machine may be
damaged due to lack of water.
Completely unroll the high-pressure
N
hose
Turn the master switch to I – now
N
the machine is in standby mode
