Initial operation

The APS 18 M rechargeable power station is totally
insulated according to class II.
Prior to commissioning make sure that the mains
voltage agrees with the operating voltage stated on
the machine's rating plate.
Devices generating direct current such as the one on
hand could influence simple earth leakage circuit
breakers. Therefore, use one of type F or better with
a tripping current of max. 30 mA.
Before starting up the charger, make sure that the
ventilation slots are unobstructed. The minimum
distance to other objects is min. 5 cm.

Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.
Always keep the device in a clean condition.
Should the device fail despite thorough manufacturing
and testing procedures, the repair must be carried out
by an authorised customer service station for
MAFELL electrical tools.
If the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by
a MAFELL customer service station because special
tools are required to do so.
