Connecting to Power Supply
The voltage and frequency of the
machine (see rating plate) must match
the voltage and frequency of the power
connection.
The minimum fuse protection of the
power connection must comply with the
specifications – see "Specifications".
The machine must be connected to the
power supply via an earth-leakage
circuit breaker to disconnect the power
supply if the differential current to earth
exceeds 30 mA.
The power connection must correspond
to IEC 60364 and relevant national
regulations.
Extension cord
The design of the extension cord must at
least fulfill the same features as the
connecting cord on the machine.
Observe the design marking (type
designation) on the connecting cord.
The cores in the cord must have the
following minimum cross-section
depending on the mains voltage and
cord length.
Cord length
Minimum cross-
section
220 V – 240 V:
Up to 20 m
1.5 mm
20 m to 50 m
2.5 mm
100 V – 127 V:
Up to 10 m
AWG 14 / 2.0 mm
10 m to 30 m
AWG 12 / 3.5 mm
Strain relief (cord retainer)
The strain relief protects the appliance
cord against damage.
Insert the plug (1) into the extension
N
