Hazardous voltages may be present on the output and guard
terminals. To prevent electrical shock that could cause injury or
death, NEVER make or break connections to the Series 2600A
while the output is on. Power off the equipment from the front
panel or disconnect the main power cord from the rear of the
Series 2600A before handling cables connected to the outputs.
Putting the equipment into standby does not guarantee the outputs
are not powered if a hardware or software fault occurs.
