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 for 30 ms.
The electric supply connection must be
made by a qualified electrician and has
to comply with the Canadian Electrical
Code, Part 1
When the machine is switched on,
voltage fluctuations that occur under
unfavorable mains conditions (high
power line impedance) may negatively
affect other connected electrical
appliances. Trouble is not anticipated at
power line impedances less than
0.15 ohms.
Extension Cords
Make sure your electrical cord set is in
good condition and suitable for outdoor
use. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry
the current your product will draw. An
undersized extension cord may cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. The table below
shows the correct size (AWG) to use for
your machine (Cord types SJW or
SJTW) depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gauge. The smaller
the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Appropriate extension cords are
available in special stores for electrical
equipment or from your STIHL dealer.
Connection to the power supply socket
Before connection to the power supply,
check that the machine is switched off –
see "Switching off the machine"
N Remove the power plug from the
holder
N Swivel the holder downward and
remove the connecting cable
N Plug the power cord or extension
cord into a properly installed outlet
N Turn on water supply
NOTICE
The machine may only be switched on
when the water intake hose is connected
and the water supply has been turned
on. Otherwise the machine may be
damaged due to lack of water.
N Completely unroll the high-pressure
hose
N Turn the master switch to I – now
the machine is in standby mode
