Safety Inspection Guide
The intent of this inspection guide is to assist you in identifying potentially unsafe conditions on these products. Each machine, as it was designed and built, had required safety items installed to protect users and service personnel from injury. This guide addresses only those items. However, good judgment should be used to identify potential safety hazards due to attachment of
If | any | unsafe | conditions | are present, you must determine |
how | serious the | apparent | hazard could be and whether | |
you | can | continue | without | first correcting the problem. |
Consider these conditions and the safety hazards they present:
ŸElectrical hazards, especially primary power (primary voltage on the frame can cause serious or fatal electrical shock).
ŸExplosive hazards, such as a damaged CRT face or bulging capacitor
ŸMechanical hazards, such as loose or missing hardware
