IMPORTANT SAFTY PRECAUTIONS
20. Avoid places with too much dust or dirt. Dirt or dust that can accumulate in the
fusion splicer causes short circuit and insufficient cooling, which may lead to
splicer malfunction or deterioration, resulting in fire or electric shock.
21. Only use the battery pack, AC adapter, battery charger and power supply cord
for the splicer as defined in this manual. Failure to do so can cause these items
or the fusion splicer to damage, resulting in fire or electric shock.
22. Only use a voltage within the indicated power voltage. Failure to do so can
cause fire or electric shock.
23. Check for condensation before operation. If this product gets wet with dew or
the like, leave it in a room temperature for about one day before turning it on.
If water or other liquid, a metallic object or other foreign substance gets inside
the splicer, immediately turn off the power and disconnect the power plug.
Contact our qualified service personnel.
24. In a high location, take safety measures to prevent fall of operators. Dropping
the splicer could result in personal injury. Fix the splicer to a worktable or a
tripod with the screw on the bottom of the splicer.
25. If an abnormal condition such as unusual noise, smoke or unusual odor
occurs, immediately turn off the power and disconnect the power plug. Next,
contact our qualified service personnel.
26. Be sure to turn off the splicer and unplug the power cord or remove the battery
pack before replacing the electrodes.
27. Only use Sumitomo genuine electrodes (ER-10). And use the splicer with
electrodes installed in it. Failure to do so can cause the splicer to damage,
resulting in fire, electric shock or malfunction.
28. If the heat shrink oven keeps running for a prolonged time, the surrounding
parts may become hot. Pay attention to the heat particularly in a high
temperature environment and use protective gloves as needed.
29. The supplied alcohol dispenser is not an airtight container. Pour alcohol into an
airtight container before transportation, so it does not spill out.
<Handling of power cord and plug >
1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not plug/unplug the power cord or
remove the battery pack with wet hands.
2. Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord. Failure to do so
can cause damage to the power cord, resulting in fire, electric shock or
malfunction.
3. Before charging the battery pack, make sure that the pins of the battery charge
cord are not bent or broken. Using the battery charge cord with a bent or broken
pin can cause internal short circuit, resulting in fire or electric shock.
