Information for pow er supply system to be used w ith
electric tools provided w ith rated voltage 230 V~
Sw itching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage
fluctuations.
The operation of this electric tool under unfavorable mains
conditions can have adverse effects to the operation of other
electric apparatus.
With a m ains im pedance equal or less than 0.29 Ohm s
there w ill probably be no negative effects.
Usually, the m axim um perm issible m ains im pedance w ill
not be exceeded w hen the branch to the pow er outlet is
fed from a junction box w ith a service capacity of 25
am pere or higher.
In case of pow er failure, or w hen the pow er plug is pulled
out, im m ediately return the sw itch to OFF position. This
prevents an uncontrolled restart.
