Mains connection

B
Danger! High voltage
Operate machine in dry environment
only. Operate machine only on a power
source complying with the following re-
quirements:
– outlets properly installed, earthed
and tested;
– fuse protection in accordance with
the technical specifications.
Make sure that the mains cable is out
of the way so that it does not interfere
with the work and cannot be damaged.
Always check to see that the machine
is switched OFF before plugging in.
Protect mains cable from heat, aggres-
sive liquids and sharp edges.
Use only extension cables with suffi-
cient lead cross section (see "Technical
Specifications").
Do not stop the compressor by unplug-
ging, but switch OFF using the switch.
Unplug after use.
