2. Before operating, ensure that the ambient temperature is b0 °C and +40 °C (+32 °F to
+104 °F).
To ensure proper cooling, keep the front, sides, and rear of the instrument clear of
obstructions.
Use properly rated load wires. All load wires must be heavy enough not to overheat when
carrying the maximum short-circuit output current of the power supply. If there is more than
one load, then any pair of load wires must be capable of safely carrying the full-rated short-
circuit output current of the power supply.
To reduce risk of fire and shock, ensure the mains supply voltage fluctuations do not exceed
10% of the operating voltage range.
Do not loosen any screw on this product, except those in the rear connector, which are intended to
retain attached external wires to the connector. There are no user serviceable components inside.
