 Machine connector plug must fit plug receptacle. Connector plug must not be altered in any way. Do
not use adapter plugs with grounded machines. Unaltered plugs and plug receptacles minimize the
risk of electric shock.
 Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces. There is an increased risk of electric shock if the body is
grounded.
 Keep machine away from wet conditions. Penetrating moisture increases the risk of electric shock.
 Do not use cables other than for their intended purpose. Protect cables from heat, oil, and sharp
objects. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk of electric shock.
 When working outdoors, only use cables suitable for outdoor spaces. Using a cable for outdoor
spaces minimizes the risk of electric shock.
 A fault current protective switch must be used if working in a damp environment cannot be avoided.
Fault current protective switches minimize the risk of electric shock.
 Safety devices, switches, or easily damaged parts must be checked to ensure that they are
functioning perfectly and according to regulations before this machine is used. Defective safety
devices conceal a high risk of injury and must be replaced immediately by specialist staff.
4.9.1 Electric power supply for electrical appliances of protection class I+III
This machine must be in perfect condition before it is connected to an electric power supply. The
following parts must be particularly checked for damage before use.
 Plug.
 Entire length of power cable.
 Power cable.
One of the following safety devices must be present when connecting to local or mobile power
generators:
 Transformer with safe separation.
 Motor generator with equally separated windings.
4.9.2 Extension cable and cable drum
Compliance with the following points is required to minimize the risk of injury, fire, electric shock, and
material damage:
 Extension cables and cable drums must be checked and undamaged.
 Only use extension cables with grounded conductor and grounded conductor connection on plug and
coupling.
 Only use extension cables and cable drums that are tested and suitable for use on the construction
site.
 Damaged extension cables and cable drums must not be used and must be replaced immediately.
 Cable drums and multiple plug sockets must display the same requirements as extension cables.
 Protect extension cables, cable drums, multiple plug sockets and connection couplings from wet
conditions.
 Extension cables and cable drums must be fully unwound before startup.
