Connecting To Power Supply; Switching On - Stihl MSE 250 C Manual De Instrucciones

Connecting to Power Supply

The voltage and frequency of your
power supply and the voltage and
frequency specified on the unit must be
the same.
The connection to the power supply
must be protected by a fuse or a circuit
breaker with a minimum rating in
accordance with the specifications – see
"Specifications."
The power tool must be connected to the
power supply via a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). Receptacles are
available having built-in GFCI protection
and may be used for this measure of
safety.
The electrical power supply connection
must comply with all applicable
standards and regulations.
Polarized Plug
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
this equipment has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). The plug
of the power tool will fit into a polarized
extension cord only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the extension cord,
reverse the plug. If the plug still does not
fit, obtain a correct polarized extension
cord. A polarized extension cord will
require the use of a polarized wall outlet.
This plug will fit in a polarized wall outlet
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper wall outlet. Do not
change the equipment plug, extension
cord receptacle, or extension cord plug
in any way.

Extension Cords
Make sure your electrical cord set is in
good condition and suitable for outdoor
use. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry
the current your product will draw. An
undersized extension cord may cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. The table below
shows the correct size (AWG) to use for
your machine (Cord types SJW or
SJTW) depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gauge. The smaller
the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Cord length (ft) Wire gage (AWG)
50 12
Appropriate extension cords are
available in special stores for electrical
equipment or from your STIHL dealer.
Connecting to Wall Outlet
Connect the power tool's plug or the
N
extension cord's plug to a properly
installed wall outlet.
