d) Before each use, the user must visually inspect that the electrofusion control unit, its cables and
accessories as well as its electrical supply cord to ensure that all parts are free from damage correctly
installed. Damaged protection facilities and device parts must be repaired or replaced by an authorized
service agent.
e) In accordance with the workplace health and safety legislation in force in your country for connection and
usage of electric devices you must ensure that the electrofusion control unit, any extension cords and
RCDs are regularly inspected (tested and tagged) by a licensed electrician or other competent person.
f) It is very important that there is a Protective Earthing (PE) conductor which is continuous (i.e.
<0.5 Ohms) from the earth terminal of the generator to the earth terminal of the plug on the flexible
supply cord of the electrofusion control unit. If the protective earthing conductor is interrupted or
becomes higher in resistance, there is a risk of electric shock.
7) Personal safety
a) Pipes and other workpieces must be firmly clamped or fixed. Poorly clamped or fixed workpieces may
hurt you or affect your safe foothold.
b) If the electrofusion control unit is used on a generator, the generator shall be grounded. Otherwise there
is a risk of an electric shock.
