Equipment Safety
Some precaut
ions should be taken to protect the Versatrax™ system from damage:
•
Repair damaged wires before operating the vehicle. A short circuit may damage the power system,
telemetry system, cameras, or any attached equipment.
•
Never drop the vehicle. Although built tough, the vehicle is heavy and can suffer structural damage
when dropped.
•
Prevent impact to the front of the 8
01 lights, Spectrum 90/120™ camera and Crystal Cam® camera
as they can suffer damage.
Operational Safety
•
All personnel operating or maintaining this equipment must read and understand the operations
and maintenance manual prior to system operation.
•
All personnel operating or maintaining this equipment must be competently trained.
•
Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) must be worn while operating and maintaining
the equipment.
•
The power supply is equipped with a ground fault interrupt circuit. Do not cheat or bypass the
ground fault interrupt circuit. Do not power the equipment from a source other than the provided
power supply.
•
Caution:
Spark Hazard
- Under no circumstances should this equipment be used in a potentially
explosive atmosphere.
•
Caution: High Voltage
- The tether carries 400VDC to the rear harness block, and the
Minitrac™ whips carry 400VDC from the harness block to the tracks. Keep the tether capped at
all times when not installed on the vehicle. Follow the guidelines for preventing tether damage.
Do not operate with a damaged tether or Minitrac™ whip. 400VDC can cause serious injury or
death. Repair damaged wires before operating the vehicle. A short circuit may damage the
controller, cameras, or any attached equipment.
•
Disconnect the power source before servicing the product; otherwise, damage or fatal injury may
result.
•
Caution: Trip Hazard
- Never stand on the tether. The vehicle and winch are strong enough to
pull it out from underneath you and cause you to fall. Standing on the tether may also cause
damage to the internal conductors and decrease the life of the protective jacket.
