SAFETY DURING INSTALLATION
Electrical
l
A protective electrical ground connection to a reliable earth ground
is essential for safe operation. Without one, all accessible conduc-
tive components (including knobs and controls that appear insu-
lated) can render an electric shock.
.
A disconnect switch with lockout capability must be provided be-
tween the power source and the equipment.
l
The power supply wire gauge and insulation must be sufficient to
meet the temperature and power requirements.
l
Only fuses of the correct type voltage rating and current rating
should be used. Refer to the equipment parts list for fuse recom-
mendations. Using incorrect or non-recommended
fuses can
present a fire hazard.
Pneumatic
Install a lockout, three-way, manual valve in the air supply line to the
filter/regulator. This valve makes it possible to relieve air pressure
and lock out the pneumatic system before undertaking maintenance
or repairs.
