It is prohibited toseparate the safety ground connection. The plug must be insertedprior to connecting any signals.General informationPlease check the instrument for mechanical damage or looseparts immediately after unpacking. In case of damage we adviseto contact the sender. Do not operate.List of symbols usedConsult the manual High voltageSTOPImportant note GroundPositioning the instrumentAs can be seen from the figures, the handle can be set into diffe-rent positions:A and B = carryingC = horizontal operatingD and E = operating at different anglesF = handle removalT = shipping (handle unlocked)STOPAttention!When changing the handle position, the instru-ment must be placed so that it can not fall (e.g.placed on a table). Then the handle locking knobsmust be simultaneously pulled outwards androtated to the required position. Without pullingthe locking knobs they will latch in into the nextlocking position.Handle mounting/dismountingThe handle can be removed by pulling it out further, depending onthe instrument model in position B or F.SafetyThe instrument fulfils the VDE 0411 part 1 regulations forelectrical measuring, control and laboratory instruments andwas manufactured and tested accordingly. It left the factory inperfect safe condition. Hence it also corresponds to EuropeanStandard EN 61010-1 resp. International Standard IEC 1010-1.In order to maintain this condition and to ensure safe operationthe user is required to observe the warnings and other directionsfor use in this manual. Housing, chassis as well as all measu-ring terminals are connected to safety ground of the mains.All accessible metal parts were tested against the mains with200 V DC . The instrument conforms to safety class I.The oscilloscope may only be operated from mains outlets with asafety ground connector. The plug has to be installed prior to con-necting any signals. It is prohibited to separate the safety groundconnection.Most electron tubes generate X-rays; the ion dose rate of this ins-trument remains well below the 36 pA/kg permitted by law.In case safe operation may not be guaranteed do not use the ins-trument any more and lock it away in a secure place.
