Double insulation
Your mower is double insulated.
This means that all external metal parts are
electrically isolated from the power supply.
This is achieved by placing an extra
insulation barrier between the electrical and
mechanical parts. Double insulation means
greater electrical safety and obviates the
necessity of having your mower earthed.
Electrical safety (UK only)
!
Your mower should always be switched off
at the mains before disconnecting any plug
and socket connector or extension cables.
Fuse replacement
If your mower is supplied with cable fitted
with a non-re-wireable plug:
• The plug is fitted with a 13 amp fuse
which is the recommended fuse for
your mower.
• Only use replacement fuses which are
approved to BS1362.
• When changing the fuse in your plug,
always ensure the fuse cover is refitted.
If the fuse cover is missing or damaged
do not use the plug.
