Chapter 4: GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AGF-602 TENS is a battery operated pulse generator that sends electrical
impulses electrodes to the body and reach the nerves causing pain. The
device is provided with two controllable output channels, each independent of
each other. An electrode pair can be connected to each output channel.
The electronics of the AGF-602 TENS create electrical impulses whose
Intensity, duration, number per second and modulation may be altered with
the controls or switches. Dial controls are very easy to use and the slide cover
prevents accidental changes in the setting.

Chapter 3 : WARNINGS
1. Caution should be used in applying TENS to patients suspected of having heart
disease. Further clinical data is needed to show there are no adverse results.
2. The safety of TENS devices for use during pregnancy or birth has not been
established.
Do not use TENS during pregnancy.
3. TENS is not effective for pain of central origin. (This includes headache.)
4. TENS devices should be used only under the continued supervision of a
physician.
5. TENS devices have no curative value.
6. TENS is a symptomatic treatment and as such suppresses the sensation of
pain, which would otherwise serve as a protective mechanism.
7. Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG monitors and ECG alarms)
may not operate properly when TENS stimulation is in use.
8. There should be a prominently placed statement warning that stimulus deliv
ered by this device may be sufficient to cause electrocution. Electrical current
of this magnitude must not flow through the thorax because it may cause a
cardiac arrhythmia.
9. Do not place electrodes on the front of the throat as spasm of the Laryngeal
and Pharyngeal muscle may occur.
10.Care should be taken so that when operating potentially dangerous machinery
the stimulator controls are not changed abruptly.
6. Electrodes should not be placed over the eyes, in the mouth, or internally.
11.Keep this device out of the reach of children.
12.Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physi-
cian.
