Rechargeable pressure washer 12v, Pw1712, Safety instructions instructions for
1.3. ELECTRICAL SAFETY (with respect to mains chargers)
WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to check the following:
You must check the AC adaptor to ensure that it is safe before using. You must inspect the power supply lead, plugs and all electrical
connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices.
An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We recommend that an RCD
(Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that plug
into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You can obtain a Residual Current Device
through your Sealey dealer. You must read and understand instructions concerning electrical safety.
