CAUTION: Class II Laser:

 

The optional Spectrum 90™ 

may be equipped with laser lines. Do not intentionally stare 
into the beam. Typically, Class II relies on the blink reflex to 
limit exposure to no more than ¼-second.  Intentionally 
staring into the beam can cause eye injury.  
 

 

When performing maintenance or functional checks of the 
lasers and camera lights, take precautions to protect 
nearby personnel from unintended exposure which could 
be temporarily blinding.  

 

Observe safe lifting practices. For storage and shipping, the 

Magg™ 480 system is packed in 

three parts: Controller, Vehicle, and Reel / Tether. Each of the three components is either built or 
packed into a Pelican case with carrying handle. The heaviest case containing the tether and 
mini-reel is equipped with wheels and extending handle like a suitcase. 

 

Do not operate the system with damaged wires. A short circuit may damage the power system, 
telemetry system, cameras, or attached equipment. Exposed wires may also create a shock 
hazard. 

 

Disconnect the power source before servicing the product; otherwise, damage may result. 

 

Although designed for durability, the vehicle and its components or attached devices may suffer 
structural damage if dropped or impacted. A lifeline or fall arrest system should be used at all time 
when the vehicle is navigating on a vertical or inverted horizontal position. In addition, stepping on 
the tether may pull the vehicle off the wall causing it to fall and sustain physical damage. 

 

All personnel operating or maintaining this equipment must be trained and competent. 

 

Eddyfi Technologies equipment is used in many varied environments from hot/dry to confined 
spaces to deep underwater. Such diverse environment risks must be addressed by the operators 
who are trained to work in such surroundings. As such, the operator is responsible to determine 
safe site setup and appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for operation and 
maintenance of the equipment.   

 

WARNING: Spark Hazard 

- Under no circumstances should this equipment be 

used in a potentially explosive atmosphere 

WARNING: Trip Hazard 

- Never stand on the tether. A snap load to the tether 

may pull it out from underneath you and cause you to fall. Standing on the tether 
may also damage its internal conductors, cause unnecessary wear, and decrease 
its life. Stepping on the tether may also pull a magnetic vehicle off the wall.  

WARNING: High Temperature 

- The camera head, auxiliary lights, and harness 

block may become hot during operation. Allow a cool-down period before 
handling.
