Electrical safety (UK only)
!
Your trimmer should always be switched off
at the mains before disconnecting any plug
and socket connector or extension cables.
Fuse replacement
If your trimmer is supplied with cable fitted
with a non-re-wireable plug:
The plug is fitted with a 5 amp fuse which
is the recommended fuse for your trimmer.
Only use replacement fuses which are
approved to BS1362.
When changing the fuse in your plug,
always ensure the fuse cover is refitted.
If the fuse cover is missing or damaged
do not use the plug.
Note: Fuses do not give personal protection
against electric shock.
Plug replacement
Disconnect the plug from the supply.
Cut off the plug and dispose of
immediately. Insertion of a detatched
plug into a 13 amp socket outlet may
result in electric shock.
Only fit BS1363A approved plugs fitted
with the correctly rated fuse.
The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be
marked at the connection points of most
good quality plugs. Attach the wires to
their respective points in the plug (see
below). Brown is for “Live” (L) and blue is
for “Neutral” (N).
Before replacing the top cover of the
mains plug ensure that the cable restraint
is holding the outer sheath on the cable
firmly and that the two leads are correctly
fixed at the terminal screws.
Warning! Never connect live or neutral wires
to the earth pin marked “E” or .
Note: Do not wire an extension cable directly
into your trimmer yourself. Instead, take your
trimmer to your nearest Black & Decker
service agent.
Increased safety can be obtained by having
a qualified electrician install a high sensitivity
(30mA) circuit breaker in the house wiring.
If you do not have such a circuit breaker
installed, or you do not wish to have one
installed, then we strongly recommend that
the electrical power to your trimmer be
supplied through a high sensitivity residual
current device (RCD). The RCD is designed
to provide a high degree of personal
protection against harmful electric current
should fault conditions occur.
Warning! The use of an RCD or other circuit
breaker unit does not release the operator of
your trimmer from the safety instructions and
safe working practices given in this manual.
Cordset replacement - Australia and
New Zealand
If the replacement of the supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the
manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a
safety hazard.
The following five sections only refer
to products supplied without a cable.
Cable connection system (UK only)
Black & Decker continually make every effort to achieve
the highest standards in performance, quality and
reliability and recommend the use of a new outdoor
cable connection system.
The new system gives additional protection against
the possibility of water or moisture entering into the
cable connector during normal use.
Note: The new connection system does not release
the operator of the machine from the safety
precautions and safe working practices given in this
user manual. Particular attention is drawn to the
coupler system as being “weather resistant” and not
suitable for immersion, submersion or being
subjected to water jets. Care should be taken to
prevent the cable from lying or trailing through pools
of water or from splashing with hose pipes.
The new cable system is available in various lengths
through most major DIY retail outlets:
A6615 20m heavy duty cable, new socket
13 amp plug
A6616 20m heavy duty cable, new socket
13 amp plug and cable tidy system
A6617 30m heavy duty cable, new socket
13 amp plug and cable tidy system
