General Safety Information

WARNING

Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury!

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work Area Safety

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas may cause accidents.

Do not operate electrical devices or

power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or heavy dust. Electrical devices or power tools create sparks, which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

Do not operate the system with electrical components removed. Exposure to internal parts increases the risk of injury.

Avoid exposure to rain or wet conditions. Keep battery out of direct contact with water. Water entering electrical devices increases the risk of electric shock.

Do not probe high voltage lines.

Battery Precautions

Use only the size and type of battery specified. Do not mix cell types (e.g. do not use alkaline with rechargeable). Do not use partly discharged and fully charged cells together (e.g. do not mix old and new).

Recharge batteries with charging units specified by the battery manufacturer. Using an improper

charger can overheat and rupture the battery.

Properly dispose of the batteries. Exposure to high temperatures can cause the battery to explode, so do not dispose of in a fire. Some countries have regulations concerning battery disposal. Please follow all applicable regulations.

Personal Safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense. Do not use diagnostic tools while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medications. A moment of inattention while operating diagnostic instruments may result in serious personal injury.

Gloves should always be worn for health and safety reasons. Sewer lines are unsanitary and may contain harmful bacteria and viruses.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Use proper accessories. Do not place this product on any unstable cart or surface. The product may fall causing serious injury to a child or adult or serious damage to the product.

Prevent object and liquid entry. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product. Liquid increases the risk of electrical shock and damage to the product.

Avoid Traffic. Pay close attention to moving vehicles when using on or near roadways. Wear visible clothing or reflector vests. Such precautions may prevent serious injury.
