Lightning Hazards
Before opening the transmitter and touching internal parts, remove and solidly ground the antenna
connection.
RF Hazards
A serious RF hazard and very high voltages exist in the vicinity of the antenna and its networks during
normal operations.
Toxic Hazards
There may be devices used in this equipment containing beryllium oxide ceramic, which is non-
hazardous during normal device operation and under normal device failure conditions. These devices
are specifically identified with “(BeO)” in the Description column of the Troubleshooting Manual’s parts
list(s).
Do not cut, crush or grind devices because the resulting dust may be hazardous if inhaled.
Unserviceable devices should be disposed of as harmful waste.
Other Hazards
Ensure that appropriate fire alarms and fire extinguishers are available. Extinguishers must be suitable
for use on electrical fires.
Many other site safety risks exist. It is beyond the scope of this manual to identify all the risks and
procedures.
WARNING: It is not enough to ground the antenna terminal with the antenna still
connected. Even a small impedance in the ground strap will result in lethal voltages
during a lightning strike.
