SHOCK WARNING
High voltage inside. To avoid electrical shock, before powering up, make sure that the ground pin of
the power cord is correctly connected to the ground connector in the power socket. Improper
grounding can cause electric shock resulting in severe injury or even death. Do not operate without
the cover installed.
WARNING
This unit must not be operated in explosive environments.
WARNING
Transportation and delivery may cause the SLM to be warm or cool upon receipt. Please wait for the
whole device to reach room temperature before attempting to operate.
WARNING
Do not operate in wet/damp conditions. Do not obstruct the air ventilation slots in the housing!
To operate your SLM properly, place it on your lab table. There are four rubber feet on the bottom of the device to
prevent sliding. Also two tapped holes are reserved for the mounting from the bottom, as shown in Figure 13.
