Otherwise, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired and can result in Impaired operation and injury.
• Beware of potential hazards, wear personal protective equipment and carefully inspect the work area for tools and
objects that may have been left inside the equipment.
• Caution: Hazardous voltages can cause shock, burns or death.
• Test/Installation/Service personnel must be familiar with general device test practices, safety precautions and follow
standard ESD precautions to avoid personal injury or equipment damage.
• Before performing visual inspections, tests, or periodic maintenance on this device or associated circuits, isolate or
disconnect all hazardous live circuits and sources of electric power.
• Failure to shut equipment power off prior to removing the power connections could expose you to dangerous voltages
causing injury or death.
• All recommended equipment that should be grounded must have a reliable and un-compromised grounding path for
safety purposes, protection against electromagnetic interference and proper device operation.
• Equipment grounds should be bonded together and connected to the facility's main ground system for primary power.
