Installing a Scanner with Magnetic Pods
The magnetic pods are used to hold the scanner against a ferromagnetic surface.
When the magnetic pods are switched on, they may exert forces that exceed
regulatory limits. These forces are not exerted in the switched-off position. When
using the magnetic pods, position the pod on the surface before switching on the
magnet. Failure to do so may result in serious injuries.
To install a scanner with magnetic pods
1.
Loosen the pivot locks on the two mounting pods.
2.
Before placing the scanner on the inspection surface, ensure that the magnetic-
activation lever is in the “off” position (see Figure 2-41 on page 44).

3.
Place the scanner at the desired position on the inspection surface.
To ensure good adhesion to the inspection surface, be sure to optimize the contact
between the magnetic pod and the surface.
