RootWave Pro User Guide
To avoid death or serious injury caused by electromagnetic
interference:
• Strong magnetic fields can be harmful to wearers of electronic
medical devices. Magnetic fields can be caused by arcs formed
between the treatment electrode and the target weed. Do not
operate RootWave Pro if you wear an electronic medical device or
if there is a possibility of people coming within 5 metres of the
machine.
Set-up
To avoid death or serious injury from electric shock:
• Electric shocks can be received from exposed connectors and
electrodes. Do not switch on the generator output until the
Electrode Module is fitted, all cable connectors are fitted, the
Treatment Lance is placed on a dry surface with the Treatment
Lance electrode clear of other objects, and the Treatment Return
and Safety Earth are fully inserted into the ground.
• Access to the emergency stop button may be needed in an
emergency. Ensure Power Module control panel is visible and
easily accessible.
• The emergency stop is a critical safety feature that should be
regularly checked. Before use check emergency stop function
before commencing treatment. See section ‘Check emergency
stop’ on page 54.
• The padlock on the power isolator switch helps ensure untrained
personnel cannot activate RootWave Pro. Ensure the padlock is
replaced locking the power isolator switch in the off position.
Ensure key is stored in a secure location and adequate padlock
and key controls are in place. If the padlock or key are misplaced
then replace immediately.
• Good visibility is essential for safe operation. Do not use the
RootWave Pro in conditions of low visibility, such as thick fog.
