ensure it corresponds to the voltage as stamped on the motor. Make sure that the motor is switched off before you plug it into the
power supply.
220/240v - Always use a Residual Current Device ("RCD"), (earth leakage trip), plugged directly into the 220/240v socket. If using an
extension cable, plug it directly into the RCD.
110v -
When using a portable transformer it must have a minimum output of 3.3kw and be continuously rated.
The symbols on the ON/OFF switch are 0=OFF and I=ON in accordance with international standards.
