just cut the chord and buy a new plug at bunnings and wire it up!

easy as mate

its actually very very easy..

go to bunnings and buy a new plug top 10A or 15A depending what u have..

brown is active
blue is neutral
yellow/green is earth

cheers,

figured it would be an easy one, just not too sure on the safety of it all...

its safe unless its plugged in, which you obviously cannot do so dont worry

i mean how safe it would be if i fixed it myself.... ill head down to bunning tomorow and ask in here if i run into any problems.

as long as no wires are exposed outside of the plug top your fine, bunnings will sell clear plug tops so you will be able to see... or if u go to an electrical wholesaler and buy one some come with pictures on how long to strip your wires.

If you buy a Clipsal 10A plug top, when you open the packet you throw away the pastic wrapping and keep the cardboard. The carboard is a triangle which you open up and on the inside it will tell you;

-How long to leave your outer insulations
-How long to leave your inner insulation and;
-How long to leave your strands of copper.

From there you follow the cable laying bits in the pastic (Torcherous path) and bingo!

^^ what is was referring to above

I think Bunnings only sells HPM shit.
Which dont have instructions on the pack.
But its easy enough to figure it out.
