ATTENTION:
The clamps and gun are connected to the same power supply, therefore when one is in use, current will be
delivered to all tools. For safety, ensure sure that the clamps and gun are always placed on the trolley when
not in use (clamp stand on either side of the trolley, and the gun stand on the arm). Failure to follow this
precaution may result in serious damage to the user, the generator and its tools, and there is a high risk of
sparks and metal spatter. The warranty does not cover damages and defects due to a bad tightening or
assembly of the C arms.
