Maintenance

 

 

 

 

-

 

Unplug the equipment from the mains power supply outlet. 

 

-

 

Under good light, carefully inspect the mains power lead and check for any signs of wear, over-extension or damage. If you 
believe the lead to be damaged in any way, contact your supplier. 

  

-

 

Carefully check to ensure all safety warning labels are affixed and in a good readable condition. Refer to the section in this User 
Manual titled “Safety Labels & Markings” for a table of factory-fitted warning labels. If any labels are missing, illegible or 
otherwise not functional, contact your supplier to obtain new replacement labels before operating the equipment. 

 

-

 

Ensure all controls and switches are good condition. If any are found to be loose or not operating correctly, have an authorized 
service technician repair the unit before operating it. 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION 

If any controls or switches are found to be loose or in poor condition, do not operate the equipment. Loose or damaged electrical 
controls and connections may create a hazardous situation sufficient to cause serious injury or risk to life. Refer the equipment to 
an authorized service technician for repair.
