Operational Safety
Your personal safety is the most important of all. Here are a few things to watch out for:
•
Take care when using cranes or overhead equipment for vehicle deployment. Watch for
overhead cables and take appropriate safety precautions (hard hats, steel-toed boots, gloves,
etc.)
•
Never stand on the tether. The vehicle and winch are strong enough to pull it out from under you
and cause you to fall. Standing on the tether can also damage the tether.
•
The tether carries 420 VDC for vehicle power. Keep the tether termination power connector
capped when not plugged into the vehicle. Follow the guidelines for preventing tether damage.
Do not operate the system with a damaged tether.
•
The LED lights are very bright. Do not look directly into the lights.
