Generator Electric Shock Hazards

WARNINGS:
Connect the generator power cord to a properly grounded receptacle. Do not use power plug
adapters.
Do not connect a wet power cord to the generator or to the wall receptacle.
To allow stored energy to dissipate after power is disconnected (caps discharge), wait at least five
minutes before replacing parts.
Always turn off and unplug the generator before cleaning.
Do not touch any exposed wiring or conductive surfaces while the generator is disassembled and
energized. Never wear a grounding strap when working on an energized generator.
When taking troubleshooting measurements use appropriate precautions such as using isolated
tools and equipment, using the "one hand rule," etc.
Potentially lethal AC and DC voltages are present in the AC line circuitry, high voltage DC circuitry,
and associated mounting and heat sink hardware described in this manual. These potentials are
not isolated from the AC line. Take appropriate precautions when testing and troubleshooting this
area of the generator.
High frequency, high voltage signals that can cause severe burns are present in the RF output
stage and in the associated mounting and heat sink hardware. Take appropriate precautions when
testing and troubleshooting this area of the generator.

Servicing

CAUTIONS:
Read all warnings, cautions, and instructions provided with this generator before servicing.
The generator contains electrostatic-sensitive components. When repairing the generator, work
at a static-control workstation. Wear a grounding strap when handling electrostatic-sensitive
components, except when working on an energized generator. Handle circuit boards by their
nonconductive edges. Use an anti-static container for transport of electrostatic-sensitive
components and circuit boards.

Cleaning

NOTICE:
Do not clean the generator with abrasive cleaning or disinfectant compounds, solvents, or other
materials that could scratch the panels or damage the generator.
