SAFETY SUMMARY

The following are general safety precautions that are not related to any specific

procedures and therefore do not appear elsewhere in this publication. These are

r e c o m m e n d e d precautions that personnel must understand and apply during many phases

of operation and maintenance.

KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS

Operating personnel must at all times observe all safety regulations. Do not

replace components or make adjustments inside the equipment with the high-voltage

supply turned on. Under certain conditions, dangerous potentials may exist when

the power control is in the off position, due to charges retained by capacitors.

To avoid casualties, always remove power and discharge and ground a circuit before

touching it.

DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE

Under no circumstances should any person reach into or enter the enclosure for the

purpose of servicing or adjusting the equipment except in the presence of someone

who is capable of rendering aid.

RESUSCITATION

P e r s o n n e l working with or near high voltages should be familiar with modern methods

of resuscitation. Such information may be obtained from the Bureau of Medicine and

Surgery .

The following warnings appear in the text in this manual and are repeated here for

emphasis :
