IMPORTANT NOTICEThe mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorpo\
rating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated 
on the pin face of the plug and if it requires replacing, a fuse approve\
d to BS1362 of the same rating must be used. 
Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachab\
le and a replacement is required, it must be of 
the same colour as the fuse fitted in the plug. Replacement covers are a\
vailable from your dealer. If the fitted plug is not

ugh to reach a power point, you should obtain a 
suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assis\
tance. However, if there is no alternative to cutting 
off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do no\
t connect the plug to a mains socket as there is 
a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.  Never attempt to insert bare wires directly into a mains socket. A 
plug and fuse must be used at all times.

g code:–  BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN 
= LIVE As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings iden\
tifying the terminals in your plug, 
proceed as follows:–The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the t\
erminal marked with the letter N or 
coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the\
 terminal marked with the let-
ter L or coloured BROWN or RED.
WARNING :   DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH  L\
