WARNING! Direct connection to live conductors is POTENTIALLY LETHAL.
Direct connections to live conductors should be attempted by fully qualified
personnel only using the relevant products that allow connections to energized
lines.
WARNING! The transmitter is capable of outputting potentially lethal
voltages. Take care when applying signals to any pipe or cable and be sure to
notify other technicians who may be working on the line.
WARNING! Reduce audio level before using headphones to avoid damaging
your hearing.
WARNING! This equipment is NOT approved for use in areas where
hazardous gases may be present.
WARNING! When using the transmitter, switch off the unit and disconnect
cables before removing the battery pack.
WARNING! The RD7000+ locator will detect most buried conductors but
there are some objects that do not radiate any detectable signal. The RD7000+,
or any other electromagnetic locator, cannot detect these objects so proceed
with caution. There are also some live cables which the RD7000+ will not be
able to detect in Power mode. The RD7000+ does not indicate whether a signal
is from a single cable or from several in close proximity.
WARNING! Batteries can get hot after prolonged use at full output power.
Take care while replacing or handling batteries.
