1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY.

WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to read, understand and comply with the following:

You must check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs and

all electrical connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety

devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an RCD

(Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged

into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by

contacting your Sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.

1.1.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a

qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.

1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance and

the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.

1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply. See 1.1.1. & 1.1.2.

above and use a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).

1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.

1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply, leads, plugs for wear and damage and all electrical connections to ensure that none is loose.

1.1.6. Important: Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply to be used and check that plugs are

fitted with the correct capacity fuse. A 13 amp plug may require a fuse smaller than 13 amps for certain products (subject 1.1.10.

below), see fuse rating at right.

1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the powered appliance by its power supply lead.

1.1.8. DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.

1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired by a qualified electrician. A Schuko

plug is fitted, in case of damage, cut off and a new plug will need to be fitted by a qualified electrician.

1.1.10. Cable extension reels. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A cable reel

with an RCD fitted is recommended since any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected. The section of the cores

of the cable is important. We suggest 1.5mm

section as a minimum but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the cable reel is

suitable for this product and for others that may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of 2.5mm

section cable.

NOTE: The MS900PSEU has an electronic speed control, which requires a ‘clean’ and stable power supply. Normal 230V

mains supply is suitable. However, the output from many petrol driven generators may not be suitable for this tool. ‘Inverter’

type power supplies provide a much more stable output, and should present no problem.
