Safety

BEFORE APPLYING POWER

GROUND THE EXCITOR.

Fuses

.

DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE

DO NOT REMOVE THE EXCITOR COVER

Output connector

Verify that the line voltage is 115V

To minimize shock hazard, the excitor chassis must be connected to an electrical ground. the excitor must be

connected to the ac power mains through a three-conductor power cable, with the third wire firmly connected to an

electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor or

disconnection of the protective earth terminal will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in personal injury.

If the excitor is to be energized by any other source be certain the that chassis is connected to a separate safety

ground.

Only fuses with the same required current, voltage rating, and specified type (normal blow, time delay, etc.) should be

used. Do not use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuseholders. To do so could cause a shock or fire hazard

Do not operate the power amplifier in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.

Operating personnel must not remove the exciter cover. Component replacement and internal adjustments must be

made only by qualified service personnel.

The type N output connector carries dangerously high RF voltages which present a shock and burn hazard.

operate this excitor with out the out put connector properly terminated in either an adequately rated load or antenna.
