IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS – READ BEFORE INSTALLING
OR USING THE EQUIPMENT
Your Ultrasonic Equipment has been designed with safety in mind. However,
no design can completely protect against improper usage, which may result
in bodily injury and/or property damage. For your protection and equipment
safeguard, observe the following warnings at all times, read the operating
instructions carefully before operating the equipment, and retain this
instruction manual for future reference. If the Ultrasonic Equipment is used in
a manner contrary to that specified in this instruction manual, the protection
features designed into the unit may be impaired.
WARNINGS
• Make sure the Ultrasonic Power Supply is properly grounded via a 3-
prong outlet.
• High voltage is present in the power supply. Do not remove the cover.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• Never operate the power supply unless it is connected to the hand gun.
• Never secure anything to the front driver, the tip or the horn.
• Never touch a vibrating horn.
• If air-cooling the converter, always use dry compressed air.
• Hearing protection is highly recommended. It is recommended that a
sound abating enclosure or ear protection be used when operating the
Ultrasonic Processor.
• Do not modify horn configurations.
• Do not affix any device to any portion of the horn.
• Certain plastic materials, when ultrasonically welded, may emit fumes
and/or gases hazardous to an operator’s health. Where such materials are
processed, proper ventilation of the work station should be provided. If in
doubt about the toxicity of your plastic material, contact OSHA, U.S.
Department of Labor, or material supplier.
• Maintenance should be performed only by a qualified electronic
technician.
• Always turn off the power supply before installing or removing the optional
foot switch cable.
• When the hand gun (converter) is on, be sure to isolate it from any/all
grounded surfaces (including machine frames) to avoid triggering an
overload condition as the system detects an alternate ground path.
