2. Safety Notes

Caution!Caution!

The power plug may only be plugged into an outlet equipped with a grounding contact.

Do not interfere with the grounding function by using an extension cord without a ground wire. Any interruption of the ground wire in- side or outside of the device, or release of the ground wire connection, can cause the device to become hazardous. Intentional ground interruption is not permitted!

The comparison macroscope’s electrical accessory components are not protected against water. Water can cause electric shock.

Do not assemble the comparison macro- scope and its accessory components in the immediate vicinity of a water connection or other areas where the possibility of water exposure exists.

Caution!Caution!

By connecting them to ground, ancillary de- vices providing their own and/or separate power supplies and which are connected to the comparison macroscope can be con- nected to the same ground wire potential. For connections without a ground connec- tor, Leica Service must be consulted.

Caution!

Never use any fuses as replacements other than those of the types and the current rat- ings listed here. Using patched fuses or bridging the fuse holder is not permitted.

Protect the comparison macroscope from excessive temperature fluctuations. Such fluctuations can lead to the accumulation of condensation, which can damage the elec- trical and optical components.

Caution!

Before exchanging the fuses or lamps, be absolutely certain to switch-off the main power switch and remove the power cable.
