To avoid electric accidents, we recommend to

use sockets with a series connected residual

10 to 30 m: 2.5 mm²

The plug and the coupling of an extension line

must be waterproof.

Always unwind the extension line completely

from the cable drum.

Never use defect connection or extension lines!

If the connection line is damaged, it must be re-

placed with a special connection line that is

available from the manufacturer or his customer

service.

Please make sure that the connection or exten-

sion lines are not damaged by being ran over,

pulled or dragged. Protect the connection lines

from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

Never touch the mains plug and the socket with

wet hands.

The connection between connection line and ex-

tension line must not lie in the water.

All current-carrying components within the wor-

king area must be jet-proof.

supply company.

See the typeplate or the section ”Technical Data”

for the connection values.
