The following are general safety precautions that are not related to any specific procedure and
therefore do not appear elsewhere in this manual. These are general safety precautions and
instructions that people must understand and apply during many phases of operation and
maintenance to ensure personal safety and health and the protection of your company property.
KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS. Maintenance personnel must observe all safety requirements at all times.
Do not replace components or make adjustments inside the equipment with the electric power supply turned on.
Under certain conditions, danger may exist even when the power control is in the off position due to charges
retained by capacitors. To avoid injuries, always remove power, discharge and ground a circuit before touching it.
Adhere to all lock out/tag out requirements.
DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE. Whenever possible, do not attempt internal service or adjustment of
equipment unless another person capable of rendering aid and resuscitation is present.
FINGER RINGS/JEWELRY. Finger rings have caused many serious injuries. Remove rings, watches and other
metallic objects which may cause shock or burn hazards.
SOLDERING/DESOLDERING. Avoid breathing fumes generated by soldering/desoldering. Perform all operations
in a ventilated area. Eye protection is required.
CLEANING SOLVENTS. Some cleaners and solvents have adverse effects on skin, eyes, respiratory tract and
internal organs. These adverse effects range from discomfort to serious injury and death, depending on the
material and degree of exposure. Observe manufacturers’ warning labels and contact your immediate supervisor
if in any doubt.
Remember…. the persons reading these instructions and operating the remote
control system are primarily responsible for their own health and safety.
