systems, and they must have passed all required training. They must have read the relevant
operating instructions and manuals before starting to work.
Have these operating instructions always at hand on all relevant locations, and ensure that
copies are available to all operators. Operating personnel must at all times follow all safety
regulations.
During normal operation, the unit can be quickly disconnected from the main power line by
turning OFF the relevant circuit breaker located on the electric switchboard.
Do not replace components or make adjustments inside the unit when the voltage supply is
turned ON. Always remove power and discharge to ground a circuit before touching it.
Under no circumstances should any person initiate servicing or repairing the unit except in
the presence of a qualified person.
Ensure unobstructed access to all operator panels, controls, and relevant switchgear cabinets
in order to enable instant response to alarms.
Whenever it is necessary to disconnect the waveguide from a radar transmitter for
maintenance purpose, the transmitter output should be terminated with a matched load. If
this is not possible, care should be taken. Do not stand in front of an open-ended waveguide
from which power is being radiated.
Ú
Note: Main power is always present on the terminal board unless the main break from
the power distribution panel of the vessel is turned off.
Warning: Never look down a waveguide from which power is being
radiated!
