Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions are not related to any specific procedures and, therefore, do not appear elsewhere in this publication. Personnel must understand and apply these precautions during all phases of operation and maintenance.
Keep Away From Live Circuits
Personnel must observe all applicable safety regulations at all times. Ensure power is removed from unit before replacing components. Potential hazards may exist even though the power control is in the off position. Capacitors retain charges. Always remove power and use test equipment to confirm that a circuit is at ground potential before touching it. Never reach into or enter an enclosure to service or adjust the equipment until the absence of power has been confirmed.
Do Not Service Or Adjust Alone
Under no circumstances should any person reach into the enclosure for the purpose of servicing or adjusting the equipment except in the presence of someone who is capable of rendering aid.
Resuscitation
Personnel working with or near high voltage should be familiar with modern methods of resuscitation. Such information may be obtained from local medical personnel.
