Precautions
When working on or using this type of equipment, follow these
precautions:
– This unit must be installed, serviced, and operated
only by skilled and qualified personnel who have the
necessary knowledge and practical experience with
electrical equipment and who understand the
hazards that can arise when working on this type of
equipment.

voltage, is present before contacting any uninsulated
conductor surface. Follow the procedures in the
order given to minimize dangerous encounters with
these voltages. Exercise extreme caution when
working near the battery bus bars.
