2.2 Health and safety
instructions
This furnace has been designed
according to EN 61010-1 and
has been shipped from the
manufacturer in safe operating
condition. To maintain this
condition and to ensure risk-free
operation, the user must observe
the notes and warnings in these
Operating Instructions.
– Place furnace on a fire-proof
table, observe local regulation
(e.g. distance to combustible
objects, etc.).
– Always keep the air vents at
the rear of the furnace free
from obstruction.
– Do not touch any parts that
become hot during operation
of the furnace.
There is a burn hazard.
– Clean furnace only with a dry
or slightly damp cloth. Do
not use any solvents.
Disconnect power before
cleaning.
– Use original packaging for
transportation purposes.
– It is important that the user
become familiar with the
warnings and operating
conditions to prevent injury
to personnel or damage to
materials. The manufacturer
is not responsible for damage
resulting from misuse or fai-
lure to observe the Operating
Instructions. Warranty claims
cannot be accepted in such
cases.
– Before switching on the
furnace, make sure that the
voltage indicated on the
rating plate complies with
the local power supply.
– The mains socket must be
equipped with a residual
current operated device (FI)
– The power plug may only be
inserted into sockets with
protected contacts.
– Before calibration, main-
tenance, repair, or change of
parts, the power must be
disconnected if the furnace
has to be opened.
– If calibration, maintenance,
or repair has to be carried
out with the power connected
and furnace open, only
qualified personnel, who are
familiar with the risks and
dangers, may perform the
procedures.
– After maintenance, the
required safety tests (high
voltage resistance, protective
conductor, etc.) must be
carried out.
– Ensure that only fuses of the
indicated type and current
rating are used.
– If it is assumed that safe
operation is no longer
possible, the power must be
disconnected to avoid
accidental operation.
Safe operation is no longer
possible if:
– the furnace is visibly
damaged
– the furnace does not work
– the furnace has been
stored under unfavourable
conditions over an
extended period of time
– Use only original spare parts.
– The temperature range for
faultless operation is +5 °C
to + 40 °C (41 °F to 104 °F).
– If the furnace has been stored
at very low temperature or
high atmospheric humidity,
the unit must be dried or left
to adjust to the room
temperature for approx.
1 hour prior to connecting
power.
– The furnace is tested for use
at altitudes of up to 4000 m
(13,123 ft) above sea level.
– The furnace may only be
used indoors.
Risks and dangers
Do not work with
liquids near the
furnace. Should a
liquid accidentally enter the
furnace, disconnect power and
consult the Customer Service.
Do not operate the furnace.
Risks and dangers
Any disruption of the
protective conductor
either inside or outside
the furnace or any loosening of
the protective conductor may
lead to danger for the user in
case of a malfunction. Deliberate
interruptions are not tolerated.
Material developing harmful
gases must not be fired.
