Before You Begin

This section provides you with safety information, technical

support information, and sources for additional product

information.

Safety Summary

Your safety is extremely important. Read and follow all warnings

and cautions in this document before handling and operating

Intermec equipment. You can be seriously injured, and

equipment and data can be damaged if you do not follow the

safety warnings and cautions.

Do not repair or adjust alone

Do not repair or adjust energized equipment alone under any

circumstances. Someone capable of providing first aid must

always be present for your safety.

First aid

Always obtain first aid or medical attention immediately after an

injury. Never neglect an injury, no matter how slight it seems.

Resuscitation

Begin resuscitation immediately if someone is injured and stops

breathing. Any delay could result in death. To work on or near

high voltage, you should be familiar with approved industrial

first aid methods.

Energized equipment

Never work on energized equipment unless authorized by a

responsible authority. Energized electrical equipment is

dangerous. Electrical shock from energized equipment can cause

death. If you must perform authorized emergency work on

energized equipment, be sure that you comply strictly with

approved safety regulations.
