SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Before returning an instrument to the customer, always
make a safety check of the entire instrument, including
but not limited to the following items.

test with the instrument AC switch in the off position.Note: Turn power switch off without fail before the
connection to the anode button is made.
d. Leakage Current Hot Check � With the instrument
completely reassembled, plug the AC line cord
directly into a 120V AC outlet. (Do not use an isolation
transformer during this test.) Use a leakage current
tester or a metering system that complies with
