1.5 Hazards of Use

1.5.1 General

CAUTION

Dropping, misusing, modifying, storing the product for long periods or

transporting the product

Watch out for erroneous measurement results.

Precautions:

▶Periodically carry out test measurements and perform the field adjust-

ments indicated in the User Manual, particularly after the product has been

subjected to abnormal use as well as before and after important measure-

ments.

DANGER

Because of the risk of electrocution, it is dangerous to use the product in the

vicinity of electrical installations such as power cables or electrical railways.

Precautions:

▶Keep at a safe distance from electrical installations. If it is essential to

work in this environment, first contact the safety authorities responsible

for the electrical installations and follow their instructions.

WARNING

Working on or near live electrical utilities may cause you to receive an electric

shock.

Precautions:

▶Do not exceed equipment’s recommended ratings and instructions of use.

▶Inspect equipment’s cables and accessories for damage, do not use if

faulty.

▶Do not work on electrically live power utilities unless you are properly

qualified.

▶Use personal protective equipment rated for the utilities voltage and cur-

rent.

▶Familiarise yourself with National and Work regulations governing safety

and accident prevention.

Person responsible

for the product

8 Safety Directions

WARNING

Distraction/loss of attention

During dynamic applications, for example stakeout procedures, there is a dan-

ger of accidents occurring if the user does not pay attention to the environ-

mental conditions around, for example obstacles, excavations or traffic.

Precautions:

▶The person responsible for the product must make all users fully aware of

the existing dangers.

WARNING

The absence of a positive indication does not guarantee the non-existence of a

utility.

Utilities without a detectable signal may be present.

The locators can only locate non-metallic utilities such as plastic pipes, typically

used by the water and gas utilities, with the use of appropriate accessories.

Precautions:

▶Always excavate with care.

WARNING

Depth reading on locator might differ from actual depth of utility

When taking a depth reading, the depth is calculated as distance to the centre

of a utility or to a sonde within the utility. Depending on the diameter of a util-

ity, the depth reading might differ from the actual depth of the utility. This

specifically applies when the signal for depth estimation is produced by a

sonde lying in a large-diameter pipe or duct.

Precautions:

▶Always take into account allowances for the diameter of a utility.

WARNING

Inadequate securing of the working site.

This can lead to dangerous situations, for example in traffic, on building sites

and at industrial installations.

Precautions:

▶Always ensure that the working site is adequately secured.

▶Adhere to the regulations governing safety, accident prevention and road

traffic.

Safety Directions 9

CAUTION

Inappropriate mechanical influences to batteries

During the transport, shipping or disposal of batteries it is possible for inappro-

priate mechanical influences to constitute a fire hazard.

Precautions:

▶Before shipping the product or disposing of it, discharge the batteries by

running the product until they are flat.

▶When transporting or shipping batteries, the person in charge of the prod-

uct must ensure that the applicable national and international rules and

regulations are observed.

▶Before transportation or shipping contact your local passenger or freight

transport company.

WARNING

A hazardous signal can be present at the transmitter output when used in con-

nection mode and on the attached accessories and live utility itself.

Precautions:

▶Take care when handling exposed or non-insulated connections. Notify

others who may be working on or around the utility.

WARNING

Exposure of batteries to high mechanical stress, high ambient tempera-

tures or immersion into fluids

This can cause leakage, fire or explosion of the batteries.

Precautions:

▶Protect the batteries from mechanical influences and high ambient temper-

atures. Do not drop or immerse batteries into fluids.

WARNING

Short circuit of battery terminals

If battery terminals are short circuited e.g. by coming in contact with jewellery,

keys, metallised paper or other metals, the battery can overheat and cause

injury or fire, for example by storing or transporting in pockets.

Precautions:

▶Make sure that the battery terminals do not come into contact with metal-

lic objects.
