sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk
of electric shock.

3. ALWAYS disconnect from the power supply before moving the heater, or
performing any cleaning or maintenance tasks.

4. Keep the power cable well away from machines and ensure an adequate

damaged, and ALWAYS keep it away from the source of heat.

6. Check the heater for damage before use. Any damage should be
properly repaired or the part replaced. If in doubt, DO NOT use. Consult
your local Clarke dealer.

BEFORE CONNECTING THE PRODUCT TO THE POWER SUPPLY.

The 230v model is provided with a 13 amp BS 1363 plug, fitted with a 13amp
fuse and MUST be connected to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply,
preferably through a suitably fused isolator switch.

If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket or
because of damage, it must be removed and a replacement fitted, following
the wiring instructions shown below. The old plug must be discarded safely as

insertion into a power socket could cause an electrical hazard.

WARNING: THE WIRES IN THE POWER CABLE OF THIS PRODUCT ARE
COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:
BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE YELLOW AND GREEN = EARTH.

The wires in the mains lead should be
wired up in accordance with the
following colour code:

• Connect the GREEN & YELLOW

coloured wire to the plug
terminal marked with a letter E
or or coloured GREEN or
GREEN & YELLOW.

• Connect the BROWN coloured

wire to the plug terminal
marked a letter “L” or coloured RED

• Connect the BLUE coloured wire to the plug terminal marked a letter

“N” or coloured BLACK.

The fuse in the plug must be replaced with one of the same rating and this
replacement must be ASTA approved to BS1362.
