Checking the Earth Leakage Breakers

When this machine's circuit breaker is set to "Off", do not switch it to "On". Doing so could result in electric shock, fire, smoke, or tripping of the room's breakers.

If the earth leakage breakers are not functioning normally, contact your sales or service representative.

An earth leakage breaker is installed on the back side of the trimmer unit and the ring binder.

Once a year, check that the earth leakage breakers function properly. Normally, the breaker is in the On position.

The explanation uses the earth leakage breaker of the trimmer unit as an example.

Check all breakers in the same way.

Press the operation switch to turn off the power.
Turn off the main power.
Using a ballpoint pen or similar pointed object, press in the earth leakage breaker's test button.
Check that the earth leakage breaker moves to the Off position.
Return the earth leakage breaker to the On position.
Turn on the main power.

If the machine does not start up when you turn its main power switch back on, check whether the earth leakage breaker is in the Off position. If any breaker is in the Off position, contact your sales or service representative. Do not reset the earth leakage breaker yourself.
