Safety instructions
Risk of injury!
The peak ends of the probe tips may cause injuries. The long probe tip
can even cause severe injuries. Ensure that no one is injured with the tip
end of the probe tips. Never point the tip at other people.
Carrying the sensor on the body can cause severe injuries. Always carry
the structure-borne sound sensor with attached probe tips with the tips
pointed away from the body in order to avoid injuries.
Your hands may be crushed by the high magnetic attractive force of the
magnetic adapter. Obliquely place the magnetic adapter on the
measured object as slowly as possible.
