General Guidelines - IBM Aptiva Hardware Maintenance Manual

General Guidelines

The purpose of this Safety Inspection Guide is to help you identify possible
unsafe conditions on machines that are being inspected for a Maintenance
Agreement. Each machine has needed items installed to provide the operators
and service personnel with an acceptable level of safety. This guide lists only
these items. Good judgment should be used to identify possible safety
conditions not covered by this Safety Inspection Guide.
If any unsafe conditions are present, you must find out how serious the hazard
is and if you can continue before you correct the hazard.
All current IBM Aptiva service supplements outlining feature/model changes,
along with the machine history, should be reviewed.
Check the following items:
•
Damaged, missing, or changed parts, especially in the area of the On/Off
switch and the power supply.
•
Damaged, missing, or changed covers.
•
Possible safety exposure from any non-IBM attachments.
