SG80 Operation Manual

SAFETY

WARNING

- Never remove the protection panels that

cover the gyro unit when the gyro stabilizer
is running.

- Maintenance activities must always be per-

formed by qualified technicians only when
power is disconnected and the flywheel is
stopped.

Alcohol and Drug Hazard

Never service the gyro stabilizer
while under the influence of al-
cohol or drugs, or when feeling
ill.

Exposure Hazard

Always wear personal protective
equipment including appropri-
ate clothing, gloves, work shoes,
and eye and hearing protection
as required by the task at hand.

WARNING

Entanglement Hazard

When servicing the gyro stabi-

lizer, make sure that the gyro
system is not powered. It is pos-
sible for someone to activate the
gyro system without realizing

that someone is working on the gyro unit.

Never operate or service the gyro stabilizer
while wearing a headset to listen to music or
the radio because it will be difficult to hear the
warning signals.

Burn Hazard

Some of the gyro unit surfaces
can become very hot during op-
eration and shortly after shut-
down. Keep your hands and
other body parts
