Electrical safety

Design of the connection cable according to IEC 60245
(H 07 RN-F) with a core cross-profile section of at least
- 1.5 mm² for cable lengths up to 25 m
- 2.5 mm for cable lengths over 25 m

Long and thin connection lines result in a potential drop.
The motor does not reach any longer its maximal power;
the function of the device is reduced.
Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be
made of rubber, non-rigid PVC or other thermoplastic
material of same mechanical stability or be covered with
this material.
The connector of the connection cable must be splash-
proof.
When running the connection line observe that it does not
interfere, is not squeezed, bended and the plug
connection does not get wet.
Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum.
Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not
meant. Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp
