Safety Precautions

During operation observe the safety warnings and precautions.
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE USER MANUAL
The Swift and Scorpion2 system are designed for a specific use. Using the Swift or
Scorpion2 system outside of its intended use is dangerous. Severe injury or death
could result. Read and understand the user manual before use.
TRANSPORTATION
It is the users responsibility to make sure that the transport safety precautions are in
accordance with the local department of transportation (or equivalent governing
body) rules and regulations. The system contains lithium-ion batteries and magnetic
materials. See user manual for more details
DO NOT OPERATE WITHOUT TETHER
Keep the area below an operating crawler clear at all times. A NO ENTRY ZONE must
be clearly marked and cordoned off directly below the crawler. The NO ENTRY ZONE
must be a minimum of 6m (20 ft) in all directions from the point below the crawler.
WARNING FINGER TRAP
Tools, magnets, and metal objects can cut, pinch, or entrap hands and fingers.
HANDLE WITH CARE.
MAGNETIC MATERIAL
The wheels of the crawler and the probe holder contain strong magnets that produce
an extremely strong magnetic field which may cause failure or permanent damage
to items such as watches, memory devices, and other electronics devices.
PACEMAKER
People with pacemakers or ICD's must stay at least 2 m (6.5 ft) away.
