Caution! Risk of injury during lifting A number of units in the Schaeffler heater range weigh more than 23 kg and may therefore not be lifted by one person alone.
■ Never use or store an induction heater in a damp environment. ■ Only use Schaeffler induction heaters indoors. ■ If using a mobile version; always lock the castors when not moving the device. ■ If the heater is equipped with extendable horizontal supports, always secure them with the appropriate locking pin, both in the fully retracted and in the fully extended position.
■ Models with a swivel arm are equipped with a safety positioning cam. An induction heater operates by means of a magnetic field. At a distance of 1 metre, the magnetic field has been reduced to such an extent that it is below the applicable standard of 0.5mT. Schaeffler Technologies...
240ºC (464°F), except for the HEATER20-BASIC type where the maximum temperature is set at 150ºC (300°F). Schaeffler induction heaters are suitable for continuous use. However, when heating to 240°C (464°F), don’t do so for more than half an hour. HEATER20-BASIC has a duty cycle of 1,5 hour.
Put heaters with wheels on the brake to prevent the heaters from moving. ■ A Schaeffler heater is supplied with ledges, temperature sensor, heat-resistant gloves (suitable up to 250°C / 482°F) and acid-free lubricant.

(in the casing). Make sure that the – and + of the plug correspond to that of the socket. Careful! Handle the sensor with care! It is a vulnerable part of the heater. After use, place the sensor on the side of a vertical pole. Schaeffler Technologies...
Never use a metal strap to support workpieces or suspend them in the magnetic field. High currents could start running through the strap, causing it to heat up. A workpiece can be placed in 2 different ways: Hanging, with ledge through the workpiece Schaeffler Technologies...
You can even use 2 ledges at the same time. This promotes optimal, fast and even heating. ■ Make sure that the bare-metal sides are sufficiently coated with lubricant to ensure optimal contact and avoid vibration. Schaeffler Technologies...
■ Always make sure that the workpiece does not come into contact with the plastic casing of the heater. When the heating is finished, follow the instructions in reverse order. Use heat-resistant gloves to move the heated workpiece. Schaeffler Technologies...
CAREFUL! ■ Always handle induction ledges with care. They are damaged easily when dropped, knocked against something, etc. Store them immediately after use. Schaeffler Technologies...
■ Wear heat-resistant gloves. Place the ledge with the workpiece on a clean surface. If the heater has a swivel arm, open it up to the safety positioning cam and slide the workpiece off. Install the workpiece without delay and prevent it from cooling down. Schaeffler Technologies...
■ After 10 seconds, another short beep is sounded and the display changes from one temperature unit to the other. ■ The heater can now be operated using the newly set temperature unit. ■ Store in a dry place, free from frost and damp. Schaeffler Technologies...
3. Loosen the socket screws and the bolts on the hinge bushing by about half a turn. 4. Switch on the heater by pressing start. The ledge now sets itself. If necessary, a dead blow (plastic) hammer may be used. Schaeffler Technologies...
