The Model 00450 has been constructed using the latest technology and are extremely safe and easy to
operate. Despite that, there is still some danger if these units are operated incorrectly and/or by untrained
personnel.
Pay particular attention to the following Cautions and Warnings marked with the “Attention” and “Danger”
symbols. Failure to follow safe operating practices may cause injuries, death, or damage to the machine,
and may void your manufacturers’ warranties.
• Before attempting to use the unit you must have
read and fully understood this Owners Manual. Keep
this Owners Manual within easy reach of operating
personnel.
• Visually inspect the unit, power cord, and accessory
items for any signs of wear or damage before
operating the unit. Do not use the unit if there is
any sign of damage, or if the unit is not performing
normally.
• Never operate the machine without the correct
induction stop ring in place on the induction head. Do
not allow any part of the induction head to contact
the toolholder or cutting tool during operation or
damage to the machine may occur.
• Do not wear rings, bracelets, or other metallic objects
while operating the machine. Metallic objects may
heat up very quickly when near the induction head
during operation.
• Use the provided thermal insulated glove whenever
handling tools or toolholders. Never try to handle
hot tools or toolholders until the cooling cycle is
complete.
• If the machine is moved from a cold environment
to a warm one, wait two hours before operating
to prevent condensation build-up from causing
electronic system errors.
• Persons with heart pacemakers may not operate
the machine, and must maintain a minimum safe
distance of 6 feet (2 meters) from the machine at all
times.
• Cutting tools have sharp edges. Handle with caution.
• The power cord provided must be plugged into the
correct NEMA L16-20R outlet. Operating the unit
while improperly connected or at the wrong voltage
may damage the unit and could possibly cause death
or injury.
• Position the power cord so it cannot be damaged by
fork trucks or other equipment, or cause a tripping
hazard for personnel.
• Do not operate the machine in a wet environment
where exposure to coolant or spills are likely to
occur. Electric shocks or damage to the machine
may occur.
• Never operate the machine around flammable
materials, or fumes. Do not use flammable liquids
or aerosols to clean tool holders. Never expose the
machine or hot tools to combustible materials.
• Never open the machine or attempt repairs or you
will VOID the manufacturer’s warranty. Dangerous
residual voltage is inside that may cause death or
injury.
• Unauthorized modifications or changes to
the ShrinkSTATION machine will VOID your
manufacturer’s warranty. Do not try and service your
unit yourself. Techniks can provide any necessary
repairs or maintenance. Do not modify or disable the
built-in safety features of the machine.
• Turn off the power switch and disconnect the power
cord from the outlet before cleaning, servicing, or
storing the unit.
• Do not operate this machine, if the EOT switches are
not working properly.
Make sure you read, understand and follow these Cautions and Warnings, as well as the complete technical notes,
setup and operation instructions before installing and using your machine.
