INTENDED USE
The RhinoBond System

 is intended for installing thermoplastic (i.e. TPO and 

PVC) and “Clean EPDM” roofing membranes on commercial, industrial, institu-

tional and appropriate residential roofs.  Its sole purpose is to bond, by induction 

means, the bottom side of the roofing membrane to a washer or plate installed 

to hold insulation and other roofing components in place, and serve as an attach-

ment point for the induction welding process. Only fasteners, washers and tubes 

provided by OMG Roofing Products are approved for use with the RhinoBond 

System. 

The RhinoBond System produces heat that can seriously injure people 

and damage metal objects.

 Please be sure that you and all crew members 

read and understand the instructions in this manual before attempting to use 

the RhinoBond System. Failure to follow all instructions could result in 

property 

damage, serious personal injury, electric shock or death.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory 

or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have 

been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person 

responsible for their safety. Keep this tool out of the reach of children.
