When you receive the Tester, inspect it for any obvious damages that may have occurred during shipment. Immediately report any damages to the carrier and your Kikusui agent. You should also find the standard accessories as shown below accompany the Tester in the same package.
Chapter 2 GENERAL PRELIMINARY NOTES AND PRECAUTIONS 2.2.3 Environmental Conditions Be sure to observe the following precautions when installing the tester. ■ Do not use the tester in a flammable atmosphere. To prevent explosion or fire, do not use the tester near alcohol, thinner, or other combustible materials, or in an atmosphere containing such vapors.
Page 27
Chapter 2 GENERAL PRELIMINARY NOTES AND PRECAUTIONS ■ Do not use the tester in locations near a sensitive measuring instrument or receiver. Operation in a location subject, may cause such equipment may be affected by noise generated by the tester. At a test voltage exceeding 3 kV, corona discharge may be generated to produce substantial amounts of RF broadband emissions between grips on the test leadwire.
Page 28
Transport the tester in its original package to prevent vibration and falls, which may damage the tester. If you require packing material, contact Kikusui distributor/agent. ■ Have two or more people move the tester. The TOS5101 weighs approximately 21 kg. Two persons are required to carry the TOS5101. Take extreme care when moving the TOS5101.
