PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY PRIOR TO
USING THE EQUIPMENT!
WARNING! This is a HIGH VOLTAGE device capable of producing an
electrical shock if not properly grounded and/or operated in accordance
with the instructions and procedures prescribed in this manual! If you have a
pacemaker or other life critical electronic medical device DO NOT use this device.
Only trained and responsible personnel should operate high voltage equipment.
Display warning labels prominently prior to and during testing. Portable holiday
detectors are designed to operate and maintain an electric current output well
below levels which could cause injury. However, you may experience a mild shock
if the test electrode or ground is touched while the equipment is activated. Wear
rubber or plastic gloves and non-conductive footwear to minimize potential shock.
Keep in mind that the shock prevention effectiveness of the rubber or plastic glove
and footwear is limited to the condition of their protective surface. Make sure your
gloves and footwear are void of tears and holes and are in good condition.
Use of Portable Holiday Detectors is limited to finding defects in insulating
materials. Testing should be conducted clear of personnel not involved in the
testing procedure. Personnel operating Portable Holiday Detectors should
be aware of the safety limitations imposed by their environment at all times.
Operator should have an assistant to ensure that unauthorized personnel are
kept clear of the testing area.
DANGER! Portable Holiday Detectors create an arc or spark. Use of
a Portable Holiday Detector in or around combustible or flammable
environments can result in an explosion. When operating in any potentially
hazardous area, consult with the plant or site safety officer before proceeding
with a holiday detection test in any potentially hazardous or suspect area.
DANGER! IF YOU HAVE A PACEMAKER DO NOT USE THIS
