Before clearing a blockage.
Before checking, cleaning or working on the ma-

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Make sure the power supply information on the
machine's rating plate are compatible with the
power supply you intend to connect it to.
This appliance is Class II* and is designed for con-
nection to a power supply matching that detailed
on the rating label and compatible with the plug
fitted. If an extension lead is required, use an ap-
proved and compatible lead rated for this appli-
ance. Follow all the instruction supplied with the
extension lead.
*Double insulated: This product requires no earth
connection as supplementary insulation is applied
to the basic insulation to protect against electric
shock in the event of failure of the basic insula-
tion.
GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have
it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat and damp/wetw areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This
circuit should be protected with the appropriate
time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor
to the power line, make sure the switch is in the
OFF position and the electric voltage is rated the
same as the voltage stamped on the motor name-
plate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the
motor.
