ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND SAFETY

CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY

Check that the power supply and plug used is in accordance with your table saw. Have a look at the rating plate of the

motor or the rating on the table saw. Any changes should always be carried out by a qualiﬁed electrician.

This machine must be earthed.

If not properly earthed this machine can cause an electrical shock. Be sure that the power supply outlet is earthed. If

there is any doubt, have it checked by a qualiﬁed electrician.

Avoid contact with the terminals on the plug when installing (removing) the plug to (from) the power supply

outlet. Contact will cause a severe electrical shock.

USING AN EXTENSION LEAD

The use of any extension lead will cause some loss of power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent overheating

and motor burn-out, ask advice from a qualiﬁed electrician to determine the minimum wire size of the extension lead.

The extension lead should be equipped with an earthed type plug that ﬁts the power supply outlet at one end, and with

an earthed type socket that ﬁts the plug of this machine at the other end.
