Handling and positioning Always make sure the instrument is placed on a steady surface, allowing easy access to its back. It is extremely important that both the power button and the power cable at the back are always easily accessible. Before moving/repositioning the instrument, always make sure that there's enough space for that. Failing to provide adequate work space can cause material damage or injury to the handler.
Risk of personal injury When moving the instrument, always make sure to use a 2 person lift as the apparatus weights more than 18kg.

Moveable parts While operating the instrument, please beware of any moveable parts.
Electrical safety
Note: Disconnect the line power outlet before servicing.
Electrical hazard [W4] Any interruption of the protective conductor (earth/ground lead) inside or outside the instrument or disconnection of the protective conductor terminal is likely to make the instrument dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited. Lethal voltages inside the instrument When the instrument is connected to line power, terminals may be live. Opening covers or removing parts is likely to expose live parts.
Electrical hazard [W4] Only use the provided power supply and supply cord. For replacements contact your local distributor. Use of wrong power supply may cause fire due to overheating.
To ensure satisfactory and safe operation of the DropSense 96 follow the guidelines below: The line power cord must be connected to a line power outlet that has a protective conductor (earth/ground). If the instrument becomes electrically unsafe, prevent other personnel from operating it, and contact your local distributor or Trinean Service support. The instrument may be electrically unsafe when: ? The line power cord appears to be damaged. ? It has been stored for a prolonged period of time in conditions which are outside of the normal storage conditions. ? It has been subjected to severe transport stresses.
Biological safety
