SAFETY CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS

1. Read the Operators Manual before operating the

balancer for the first time. Follow all instructions

and warnings marked on the product.

2. The balancer operates from a) 110Vac, 60 Hz

wall outlet with the supplied 8.5Vac power

converter b) 12Vdc supply. Do not use any other

electrical sources. Use only an EARTHED

electrical power source. Use only a correctly rated

replacement fuse

.

3. Arrange the power cord so that it will not be tripped

over or pulled, and keep it clear of moving parts.

If an extension cord is used, ensure its current

rating equals that of the power cord supplied.

Immediately replace a damaged power cord.

4. Ensure the balancer rests on all three feet on a

clean, level floor with no debris under the base.

5. Do not operate the balancer: a) near fumes or

exposed flammable liquids; b) on wet surfaces.

Do not expose the balancer to rain.

6. Adopt the correct lifting procedures when lifting

any object. Weights in excess of 100lb (45kg)

should not be lifted unaided.

7. NEVER remove a cover or access panel on the

balancer without first disconnecting the balancer

from the electrical power source.

8. Only authorized and trained operators should use

the machine.

9. Wear approved eye protection when removing or

attaching weights. Keep hair, clothing and all parts

of the body clear of balancer moving parts.

10. Remove all stones, old weights, and other debris

from the wheel before balancing.

11. Centre and tighten the wheel on the shaft before

spinning the wheel.

state if the power is interrupted.

power cord and use the available pegs and trays
