Instructions for Use, V 1.9 RevJ – 08/2017
• Only qualified personnel may install the instrument.
• At least 2 qualified persons are required when lifting and transporting the instrument. Caution!
The instrument weighs approximately 160 kg when empty. Once unpacked, the instrument may
be transported only in an upright position.
• Wear non-slip gloves when moving the instrument to prevent the instrument from slipping.
• Follow the unpacking instructions carefully to avoid damage to the instrument!
• Prior to every transport in which it is possible for the instrument to be shaken, tilted, or lifted, it
must be cleaned for transport – otherwise the interior of the instrument can be severely dam-
aged.
• Plug the instrument only into a grounded power socket. Do not interfere with the grounding
function by using an extension cord without a ground wire.
• Make sure to observe the voltage settings! The set voltage CANNOT be changed by the user.
Severe damage may occur if the instrument is connected to a power supply voltage other
than that to which it was originally set.
• The installation location must be well-ventilated; there should be no ignition sources there
of any kind. The chemicals to be used in the Leica ASP300 S are both flammable and noxious.
• Do not operate the instrument in rooms with explosion hazard.
• Do not operate without having an active carbon filter installed.
• Extreme temperature fluctuations between storage facility and setup site as well as high hu-
midity may cause condensation to form. If this is the case, wait at least two hours before
switching on the instrument. Failure to comply with this may cause damage to the instru-
ment.
