Safety precautions
The user should have an appreciation of the contents of this manual, and
be familiar with safe workshop practices.
• Follow the User Manual at all times.
• Ensure that the machine operates at the correct supply voltage. If the
heater has been supplied without a plug connection to the power supply
should only be made by a suitably qualified person.
• Do not use or store the heater in humid environments.Timken Induction
heaters are designed for indoor use only.
• On mobile models, always apply brake when in a stationary position.
• If the heater is equipped with sliding horizontal supports, always secure
these with the designated safety pin, either in the "in" or "out" posi-
tion.
• Use proper handling equipment, appropriate for the weight of the work
piece or yoke.
• Never support parts with a metal cable or have anything metallic hanging
in the proximity of the magnetic field. Extremely high currents can flow
through the cable, causing the cable to heat up.
• Do not hold metal objects near the yokes and poles.
• While heating keep at least 1 metre (3.3 ft) distance from the heater.
• Never remove the yokes during the heating cycle.
• Do not modify the heater and do not use self-fabricated yokes.
• Always check that the yoke is correctly adjusted to the poles otherwise
excessive vibration may occur.
• Only switch the machine on when the yoke is positioned correctly – on
models equipped with a swing arm (or swivelling yoke), the arm should
always be closed.
