WARNINGS

Before beginning any work on this equipment, review the general safety

precautions and procedures in TB 385-4, Safety Precautions for Main-

tenance of Electrical and Electronic Equipment. Do not work on equipment

alone. Be sure that a person capable of rendering first aid is present.

To prevent personal injury when applying or removing steel strapping on

crates or cartons, wear heavy gloves and protective eye glasses. Do not

handle cartons by the steel straps.

Adequate ventilation should be provided while using TRICHLOROTRI-

FLUOROETHANE. Prolonged breathing of vapor should be avoided. The

solvent should not be used near heat or open flame; the products of

decomposition are toxic and irritating. Since TRICHOLORTRIFLUORO-

ETHANE dissolves natural oils, prolonged contact with the skin should be

avoided. When necessary, use gloves which the solvent cannot penetrate. If

the solvent is taken internally, consult a physician immediately.

Compressed air shall not be used for cleaning purposes except where

reduced to less than 29 psi and then only with effective chip guarding and

personnel protective equipment. Do not use compressed air to dry parts

when TRICHLOROTRIFLUOROETHANE has been used. Compressed air

is dangerous and can cause serious bodily harm if protective means or

methods are not observed to prevent chip or particle (of whatever size) from

being blown into the eyes or unbroken skin of the operator or other person-

nel.

Do not attempt to lift or move the heavy components of the AB-621(*)/G or

MK-2044/G without adequate manpower.
