§
Never try to open a reservoir.
§
For further information, refer to the GIS instruction manual.
Environmental
risk: Disposal of
aggressive or toxic
chemicals
When disposing of aggressive or toxic chemicals, there is a threat of damage to the environment.
§
When disposing of waste that has been generated during a service operation (e.g. used rotary
pump oil), comply with all national and local safety and environmental protection regulations.
2.3.4 Electrical Hazards
Danger to life:
Hazardous voltage
inside the
microscope
High voltages are present inside the microscope. Contact may cause burn or electrical shock.
§
Ensure proper grounding. For more information, refer to the Installation Requirements docu-
ment.
§
Only authorized ZEISS service representatives are allowed to service the microscope.
§
Do not try to service the microscope yourself.
Danger to life:
High leakage
currents
High leakage currents are present in the microscope. Contact may cause burn or electrical shock.
§
Ensure proper grounding. For more information, refer to the Installation Requirements docu-
ment.
§
Do not operate the microscope without the separate ground connection.
2.3.5 High Pressure Hazards
Risk of injury or
property damage:
High pressure in
gas cylinders
Gas cylinders containing for example nitrogen or compressed air have a high internal pressure of
approximately 200 bar. If not properly handled, the contained gas can abruptly escape and cause
the gas cylinder to move in an uncontrollable manner.
§
Observe all safety labels on the gas cylinders and all safety instructions given by the gas cylin-
der manufacturer.
§
Always operate gas cylinders in an upright position and secure them so they will not tip over.
§
Before transporting gas cylinders, place protective caps on them.
2.3.6 Magnetic Field Hazards
Risk of injury:
Malfunction of
medical devices
near ion getter
pumps
Magnetic fields present at the ion getter pumps may disturb the function of medical devices. The
magnetic fields are also present if the microscope is switched off.
If you wear medical implants that are susceptible to magnetic fields (e.g. cardiac pacemakers), do
the following:
§
Keep a distance of at least 1 m from the ion getter pumps.
§
Follow the safety instructions provided by the pump manufacturer.
2.3.7 Mechanical Hazards
Risk of injury:
Moving the
specimen stage
Fingers can be trapped by the moving specimen stage.
§
Always close the chamber door before moving the specimen stage.
§
To remove parts fallen into or near to the stage use a tool (e.g. tweezers) instead of your fin-
gers.
Risk of injury:
Closing the
chamber door
Fingers can be pinched when closing the chamber door.
§
Use the recessed grip or door handle to close the chamber door.
§
Ensure not to get your fingers caught in the chamber door gap.
