Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs
x
fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1).
The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be
x
marked at the connection points of most good
quality plugs. Attach the wires to their respective
points in the plug (see above). Brown is for
Live (L) (2), blue is for Neutral (N) (4).
Before replacing the top cover of the mains
x
plug ensure that the cable restraint (3) is
holding the outer sheath of the cable firmly
and that the leads are correctly fixed at the
terminal screws.
If the plug has a fuse cover, make sure that the
x
fuse cover is fitted. Do not use the plug if the
fuse cover is missing or damaged.
Never use a light socket.
Using an extension cable
Always use an approved extension cable suitable
for the power input of this tool (see technical
data). The extension cable must be suitable for
outdoor use and marked accordingly. When using
a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.
Cable connection system
Black & Decker continually makes every effort to
achieve the highest standards in performance,
quality and reliability. We recommend the use of a
new outdoor cable connection system, which
gives additional protection against the possibility
of water or moisture entering into the cable
connector during normal use.
The new connection system does not
release the operator of the tool from the
safety precautions and safe working
practices given in the manual.
Particular attention is drawn to the fact
that this connection system is 'weather
resistant', but not suitable for immersion,
submersion or being subjected to water
jets. Take care to prevent the cable from
lying in or trailing through pools of water
or from splashing with hose pipes.

Existing cable systems
Your tool either comes with a cable attached
(the cat. no. ends with a C) or with a male connector
built into the tool. If you already own an outdoor
cable system with the old female connector shown
below, we recommend that you replace this
connector with the new female connector, which is
available from most major DIY outlets and from
Black & Decker service centres (cat. no. A6624S).
old female connector
Follow the instructions supplied with the connector.
If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Existing outdoor tools
To connect existing Black & Decker outdoor tools
to the new system, you will need an adaptor (see
below), which is available as an accessory from
most major DIY outlets and from Black & Decker
service centres (cat. no. A6623S).
This adaptor is only suitable for products
rated up to 500 W. It is not recommended
for use with hover mowers, rotary mowers
with grass collection, chainsaws, shredders
and blower vacs. Please contact your local
service centre if you need further advice.
