The extension cable contains two wires which are

colour coded for easy recognition; brown is for

‘Live’ (L) and blue is for ‘Neutral’ (N). The female

connector is marked ‘L’ for live and ‘N’ for neutral.

These markings are located inside the body near the

terminal screws (see next page, figure a). With the

connector cover removed, lift out the cable protector

and proceed as follows:

• Pass the cable through from the narrow end of

the cable protector (see opposite, figure a).

• Prepare the cable ends to the specified strip

lengths (see opposite, figure b).

• Remove cable clamp (see opposite, figure a).

Take care of loose parts.

• To connect the extension cable to the connector

terminals, unscrew the terminal screws until the

clamp washers have lifted just enough to enter

the conductor between the raised washer and

the terminal (see below). Connect the brown lead

to ‘L’ and the blue lead to ‘N’.

N.B. There is no need to remove the terminal

screws. Connections are not to be made under

the screw heads.

• Locate the cable and cable protector into the

body correctly (see below, figure a). Then fit the

cable clamp over the outer sheath of the cable

and screw down until the screws are fully home.

Failure to do this may result in the cover not

fitting correctly to the connector body.

• Before replacing the cover of the ‘female’

connector make sure that the cable clamp is

holding the outer sheath of the cable firmly with

screws fully home and that the two leads are

correctly fixed at the terminal screws and are not

taut (see next page, figure a).

• Place the cover onto the body assembly

ensuring that it seats flat, then retighten the fixing

screw into the nut until the cover is securely held

(see next page, figure c).

• Finally check that the cable protector is secure

and that there are no gaps between the cover

and the connector body.

Fitting your own extension cable

(UK only)

• When fitting your own extension cable fit a

13 amp plug (see “fitting the mains plug”)

to one end of the cable and a ‘female’ connector

(supplied loose in the carton) to the other end

(see below). For wiring instructions see the

following sections.

• A ‘male’ connector is already attached to the

electrical supply cable on your machine and is

designed to be non-rewireable (see below).

This should not be removed. Should the

cable and plug become damaged or need

replacing, please return the machine to your

Black & Decker service centre.

‘female’ connector ‘male’ connector

Warning! Never wire an extension cable with

anything other than the ‘female’ connector

supplied and a 13 amp BS1363A approved

plug with the recommended fuse. Never

wire a ‘male’ connector to your extension

cable and never wire an extension cable

with a plug of any kind at each end of the

cable. This is extremely dangerous and

results in the pins being live which may

cause a fatal electric shock.

Fitting the ‘female’ connector

(UK only)

To remove the cover, unscrew the fixing screw until it

is free of the nut which is located in the hexagonal

recess on the underside of the connector. Take care

not to lose the nut if it falls out. There is no need to

completely remove the fixing screw as it is intended

to remain captive in the cover. The cover can now be

removed by applying pressure as shown below.
