SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
READ BEFORE INSTALLING OR
USING THE EQUIPMENT
This system has been designed to assure maximum operator safety. However, no design can completely
protect against improper usage. For maximum safety and equipment protection, observe the following
warnings at all times and read the instruction manual carefully before you attempt to operate the equipment.
– The equipment has safety devices that require both hands to be on the palm buttons until the horn contacts
the work piece. Do not defeat or modify these safety devices.
– Do not use with foot switch unless alternate means of pinch-point protection is provided.
– High voltage is present in the equipment. Disconnect plug before removing cover or servicing.
– Make sure equipment is properly grounded with a 3-prong plug. Before plugging in equipment, test outlet for
proper earth grounding.
– High voltage potential may be present in the converter as a result of temperature changes. Do not touch the
converter contact unless you first short both pins or the button to the converter case with an insulated tool.
– Never squeeze or grab a vibrating horn.
– Do not modify horn configurations.
– Ultrasonic welders operate above normal audibility for most people. Ear protection is recommended.
- Do not affix any device to any portion of the horn.
