Tranzsporter track sections are located within 10 ft. (left or right or underneath) overhead electric power lines. If a minimum
safe distance (10 ft.) from electrical wires cannot be maintained, contact the local utility company and have the electric wire
unenergized and grounded or guarded effectively by insulating or other means.
A COMPETENT PERSON must be present during any set up, during any repositioning, and during any tear down operations
of the Transporter track sections when the Transporter is to be located near electric power lines. A COMPETENT PERSON must
read and understand the Owners Manual for set up, operating instructions, and tear down instructions in order to insure that
all personnel authorized to set up, operate, and tear down the Transporter are made aware of ALL SAFETY WARNINGS as well
as the operating instructions. ALWAYS USE APPROVED ROOF TOP fall protection when setting up, operating, and taking down
