To reduce the risk of serious injury, read these precautions carefully before using the battery charger o r battery. A/C Power Supply Do not probe A/C power supply with conduc ve objects. Shor ng of ba ery terminals • may cause sparks, burns or electrical shock. • Do not use A/C power supply if damaged. A damaged A/C power supply increases the risk of electrical shock. • Use an appropriate power source. Do not a empt to use a step‐up transformer or an engine generator. Doing so may cause damage t o the A/C power supply of the BK7000 resul ng i n electrical shock, fire or burns. • Do not allow anything to cover the A/C power supply while in use. Proper ven la on is required for correct opera on of the A/C power supply. Allow a minimum of 4” (10 cm) of clear‐ ance around the charger for proper ven la on. Unplug the A/C power supply when not in use. Reduces the risk of injury to children • 4 ...

Video Scope Use and Care • Use video scope only as directed. Do not operate the inspection unit unless the owner’s manual has been read and proper training has been completed. • Do not immerse the handheld display unit in water. Store in a dry place. Such measures reduce the risk of electric shock and damage. The imager head and the cable are water resis‐ tant when the unit is fully assembled, but the video display unit/handle is not. • Do not use the camera if condensation forms inside the lens. Let the water evaporate before using again. • Do not use tool if ON/OFF switch is not properly w orking. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. • Store idle equipment out of the reach of children and other untrained persons. Equipment is dangerous in the hands of untrained users. • Maintain the video scope with care. Properly maintained tools are less likely to cause injury. 8 ...
