ELECTRICAL SAFETY

This product is provided with a standard 13 amp, 230 volt (50Hz), BS 1363 plug, for connection to a standard,

in your plug, proceed as follows:

• Connect GREEN & YELLOW coloured cord to plug terminal marked with a letter “E” or Earth symbol “ ”.

• Connect BROWN coloured cord to plug terminal marked letter “L”

We recommend that this machine is connected to the mains supply through a Residual Current Device (RCD).

FUSE RATING

IMPORTANT:

If this appliance is fitted with a plug which is moulded onto the electric cable (i.e. non-rewireable) :

1. The plug must be thrown away if it is cut from the electric cable. There is a danger of electric shock if it is
subsequently inserted into a socket outlet.

2. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

3. Should you wish to replace a detachable fuse carrier, ensure that the correct replacement is used (as
indicated by marking or colour code).

SET UP & OPERATION

Set the unit up on a firm, level surface.

The moulded body of the unit has 3 operating angles depending on use required; level, 45O or 90O.

The air-flow from the unit exits from the front ‘mouth’, the intake sides are where the two circular
grills/motor mounting bracket are fitted to the side of the body.

Plug the unit into the relevant power supply and switch the supply ON.
The unit is switched on by turning the top mounted control knob clockwise from the ‘0’ position to ‘I’

which is the lowest operating speed. The speed can be increased by turning the knob to either
position. Do not force the knob past the stop point, you will damage the switchgear.

EQUIPMENT CARE & STORAGE

Never use this unit except for its intended purpose.

Keep the equipment clean, especially the intake grills. Blow out the grills with compressed air if they
become clogged.

NEVER move the unit whilst it is operating!

Switch the unit OFF and unplug from its power supply, wrap the cable round the top part of the moulding.
