Introduction
Thank you for choosing your new Habasit measurement system - the Belt
Tension Meter. We hope to be able to fulfill your expectations of this modern
measurement system. Before making any measurements, be sure to read
and follow the safety guidelines and precautionary measures.
We wish you great success in using your new measurement system.
Safety guidelines
The Belt Tension Meter uses an extra bright, red LED (660 nm).
For this reason, it is not necessary to take measures to protect
your eyes. However, do not look directly into the bright
measurement beam at close range.
Consider the following safety precautions.
Caution
Before making measurements, ensure that the instrument is
switched off (master switch) and secured against unintentional
restarting.
• Personnel must be informed in a timely manner that
measurements will be performed.
• If necessary, clearly mark and cordon off the service area at or
around the machine, for example, by using lines or ropes.
• The measuring and setting of the belt tension must only be
performed by qualified, instructed technical staff while following
the specific instruction manual for the instrument as well as the
extended documentation from the supplier.
Caution
This instrument must not be operated in rooms with high humidity.
Avoid direct exposure to heat, for example, through sunlight.
Moisture and rain, as well as extreme heat or cold, will
damage the instrument
.
Note
Do not let the instrument drop or be bumped sharply. The delicate
optics could be damaged and the measurements made unusable.
