Magnetic Hazards

The magnet track will be exposed during normal operation or when you do maintenance to the
system.
DANGER: Magnetic Field Hazard!
Only qualified, trained personnel should be allowed to have access to exposed mag-
l
net tracks during setup or when you do maintenance.
Strong magnetic fields are present near and inside the magnet track assembly.
l
Do no disassemble the magnet track components. If you do so, you will expose your-
l
self to mechanical crush, pinch, or impact hazards.
Magnetic fields could interfere with external or internal medical devices (pace-
l
makers, for example).
Magnetic fields can create mechanical hazards (crush, impact, or pinch points, for
l
example).
Loose items such as metallic tools, watches, or keys could get drawn into and dam-
l
age the magnet track assembly.
IMPORTANT: Use non-magnetic tools when you install or do service to the stage.
