●
DO NOT operate unit if you are not in good health. People with a cardiac
condition should not operate this unit.
●
DO NOT operate this unit if you have a pacemaker. This unit should only be
used for checking porosity (or electrical breakdown) of dielectric or insulating
materials (e.g., Jacketing material, powder coatings).
●
DO NOT use this unit around other machinery. An electrical shock may cause
the operator to fall and injure themselves.
●
DO NOT operate this unit around people who not directly involved in the testing
procedure.
●
DO NOT operate this unit other than McGan Technology Probes. McGan
Probes CAN ONLY be used with the appropriate McGan Insulation Tester(s).
●
DO NOT simultaneously handle the brush electrode and ground clamp, as it will
cause a mild “tingle”. Use surgical gloves as a precaution against “tingle”.
●
You cannot operate the MM513 unit with the AC adaptor plugged into the
rechargeable battery port on the bottom of the base unit.
●
ONLY USE Lithium Polymer (LiPo) battery and the associated AC power
adapter (PN/5VQACP-0015) provided with the M513 system.
●
LED battery indicator light will illuminate when the unit is low on power.
o
If the power from the battery is too low the LED will not illuminate.
o
If the MM513 fails to operate due to battery failure, contact Customer

●
DO NOT use wet.
After cleaning,
thoroughly
DRY all areas before using the
components,
and inspect for any defects in the electrodes.
●
DO NOT
use the test equipment in any combustible or flammable
atmosphere
(i.e., flammable anesthetics)
,
as a test voltage can cause an arc or
spark to be generated and
an explosion could result
.
