•Keep the area around the chassis clear and free from dust before, during, and after installation.

•Keep tools away from areas where people could trip over them while walking.

•Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry, such as rings, bracelets, or chains, which could become caught in the chassis.

•Wear safety glasses if you are working under any conditions that could be hazardous to your eyes.

•Do not perform any actions that create a potential hazard to people or make the equipment unsafe.

•Never attempt to lift an object that is too heavy for one person to handle.

•Never install or manipulate wiring during electrical storms.

•Never install electrical jacks in wet locations unless the jacks are specifically designed for wet environments.

•Operate the router only when it is properly grounded.

•Replace fuses only with fuses of the same type and rating.
