WARNINGS
If any of the following situations occur during use, turn off the power immediately and contact your local UCL
SWIFT office or representative:
•
Smoke, abnormal smell, noise or abnormal overheating
•
A foreign substance or liquid falls into the equipment
•
The splicer is visibly damaged
Use only the power cord and connecting devices provided with or intended for the KF4. Failure to do so may
result in fire, electrical shock or injury.
Do not touch the electrodes when the power is on. High voltage and high temperatures generated from the
electrodes may result in serious shock or burn.
Connect the provided AC power cord only as directed. Ensure that there is no foreign substance on the
terminal before connecting it to the AC power socket. Improper use may result in smoke, electrical shock, fire,
equipment damage, serious injury or even death.
Use proper power voltage.
AC power for the charger is AC100-240V, 50~60 Hz.
Test the AC power before use. When the output voltage of AC power is high or abnormal frequency is
generated, the product is damaged thus serious injury or even death may result.
AC output voltage should be measured using a circuit tester before connecting the AC power cable. Regular
inspection should also be conducted.
Do not pull the AC power cord with excessive force, apply heat or transform it.
When a damaged power cord is used, it may cause fire or injury.
Use a three-plug AC power cord. Never use a two-plug power cord, cable or plug.
Do not touch the AC plug, AC power cord or splicer with wet hands. It may cause electrical shock.
Do not disassemble the AC charger, battery or KF4. Disassembly may cause fire, electrical shock or injury.
Refer to the following when using the battery:
•
Failure to use batteries and chargers provided by UCL SWIFT may result in smoke, equipment damage,
burn, injury or even death.
•
Do not burn any conductive materials.
•
Do not charge the battery near a flame.
•
Do not give an excessive shock to the battery.
•
When the battery does not completely charge in two hours, or when the green LED is not turned on, stop
charging immediately and contact UCL SWIFT.
•
Do not put anything on the AC charger while charging.
Use only the AC charger provided. Do not use another AC power cord or battery. Excessive current may result
in equipment damage or injury.
Do not use the KF4 where there is harmful gas or flammable liquid. Explosion or fire may result.
Do not use compressed air or compressed gas when cleaning the KF4.
Inspect the carry case belt before transportation. Equipment damage or injury may occur if the carrying case is
damaged.

with fiber optic products, including the KF4.
Do not use the KF4 around high temperatures or flame. Injury or equipment damage may occur.
Be aware of and avoid hot surfaces associated with thermal strippers and sleeve heaters. Allow sleeves to cool
before handling.
