•
Do not place tool into any thing or anywhere that may
contain a live electrical charge.
•
FOR WALLS: For inspecting inside walls, be sure to
shut off the circuit breaker to the whole house before
using the tool behind any of the walls
•
FOR PIPES: If you suspect a metal pipe could con-
tain an electrical charge, have a qualifi ed electrician
check the pipe before using the tool. Ground cir cuits,
in some cases, can be returned to cast iron pipes
and cause them to be charged.
•
FOR AUTOMOBILES: Be sure the auto mobile is not
running during inspection. Metal and liquid under the
hood may be hot. Do not get oil or gas on the imager
head. Exposure to petroleum-based sub stances will
eventually degrade the im ager head covering.
•
GENERAL USE: Do not use anywhere the unit
may come into exposure with haz ardous chemicals,
electrical charges or moving parts. Such situations
may result in serious injury or death.
