OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SET-UP:
To set-up, rst install the quartz elements into the
heat sink sockets. Be sure the elements are pushed
in all the way. After installing the elements, install the
guards into the holes drilled on the tops of the heat
sinks. Plug the unit into the appropriate electrical
supply.
OPERATION:
Turn the lighted On/O󰀨 switch on the right side of
the unit to ON to apply heat to the quartz elements.
The elements on the unit may be closed by use of
the electrical footswitch.
The temperature of the elements may be varied by
use of the knob located on the right side of the unit.
With the elements open, insert the workpiece from
the side or top of the elements, close the elements,
adjust the element temperature, and pull or push the
material to be heated, through the elements.
Open the elements when all material has been
heated and remove the workpiece from the top or
side of the elements.
NOTE: Continuous elements must be used on the
Single Element Bench Glo-Ring.
! CAUTION: The Bench Glo-Ring in operation,
generates signicant heat and should be treated
with respect. Do not leave unit unattended when
turned ON. When changing elements, be sure
unit is unplugged from the power source and
that the elements are completely cooled to the
touch. The elements are manufactured from
quartz glass. If dropped or knocked sharply,
they will break. If elements are broken, replace
immediately.
MAINTENANCE:
Keep unit clean at all times and ensure that
elements and wire guards are securely installed. No
cleaning should be required in normal usage. No
other maintenance is required.
TROUBLE SHOOTING:

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
!WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE TOOL
UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THOROUGHLY,
AND UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY, ALL
INSTRUCTIONS, RULES, ETC. ON THIS
PAGE, AND IN THE OPERATING MANUAL.
WHEN USING ELECTRIC TOOLS, BASIC
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS
BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRICK SHOCK, AND PERSONAL INJURY,
INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided – if it will not t the
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualied
electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
green conductor with or without yellow stripes is
the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary,
do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor
to a live terminal.
Check with a qualied electrician or service
personnel if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether
the tool is properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the
tool’s plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

benches invite accidents.
DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS
Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations, or

persons.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS Before further use
of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform its intended function
– check for alignment of moving parts, binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and
any other conditions that may a󰀨ect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced.
