Listed below are safety warnings that are used throughout this manual. It is
strongly recommended that personnel who are, or will be, responsible for
maintaining or operating the equipment described in this manual should read
and understand these warnings.
1. LETHAL HAZARD – ELECTRICAL SUPPLIES. A current of 100 milli-amps
passing through the body for one second can kill. This can occur at voltages as
low as 35V ac or 50V dc. The equipment described in this manual uses
electrical power which can be lethal. Unless absolutely necessary, cleaning,
inspection and maintenance must not be carried out without first isolating the
equipment from all electrical supplies.
2. WORKING ON EQUIPMENT. If it is essential to work on the equipment with
electrical power connected, the work must be undertaken only by qualified
personnel who are fully aware of the danger involved and who have taken
adequate safety precautions to avoid contact with dangerous voltages
3. LIFTING EQUIPMENT. Use only the correct slings and lifting tackle to move
heavy items of equipment described in this manual. Inspect all slings and lifting
tackle prior to lifting the equipment to ensure that:
(a) The safe working load will not be exceeded.
(b) There are no frayed or broken strands.
(c) Hooks, rings, etc. are not damaged.
WARNING
MOVING A SEARCH HEAD. Some metal detector search heads are
extremely heavy. Care must be taken when moving such a head to ensure
that it can not fall or topple over. This could result in death or severe
injury to an individual and/or severe damage to the head.
Depending on the size and weight of a head, either a crane or a fork-lift
truck will be required to lift and move it into the final location.
