IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
A hot-runner system includes electrical elements and may contain molten plastic at elevated temperature and pressure. To avoid injury, exercise caution by reading these instructions before servicing or operating the system. These instructions must be passed on to the end user where they should be read before using this product. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
DANGER
Failure to comply will result in serious injury or death: ELECTRICAL HAZARDS Improper voltages or grounding can result in electrical shock. Use only with proper voltage and a proper earth ground. To avoid electrical shock, do not operate product when wet. Do not operate this equipment with covers or panels removed. To avoid electrical shock, turn off main power disconnect and lockout / tag out before servicing this device. Do not connect temperature sensors to electrical power. It will damage the product and it can cause fire, severe injuries or even death. If green ground wire present wire must be connected to the ground. Do not rebend rigid leads. Rebending leads might result in damage to circuit. Product might absorb moisture when cool. Use low Voltage or power to drive out residual moisture before applying full power. Failure to do so may cause damage to this product.
