microReel Safety

• Read and understand this manual,
the digital reporting monitor's manu-
al, and the instructions for any other
equipment you are using before oper-
ating the equipment. Failure to follow all
instructions may result in property dam-
age and/or serious injury. Keep this man-
ual with the equipment for future use.
• Operating the equipment while in
water increases the risk of electri-
cal shock. Do not operate the system
if operator or equipment are standing in
water.
• The equipment is not designed to pro-
vide high voltage protection and iso-
lation. Do not use where a danger of
high voltage contact is present.
• To prevent damage to the equipment
and to decrease the risk of injury, do
not expose the equipment to mechan-
ical shocks. Exposure to mechanical
shocks can damage equipment and in-
crease the risk of serious injury.
• Always use appropriate personal pro-
tective equipment when handling
and using equipment in drains. Wear
10 – English – microReel APX
appropriate protective equipment such
as latex or rubber gloves, goggles, face
shields, and respirators when inspect-
ing drains that might contain hazard-
ous chemicals or bacteria. Always wear
eye protection to protect against dirt and
other foreign objects.
• Ensure the push cable is secured in-
side the drum to prevent the push
cable from unwinding itself if the
drum is removed from the case or if
the case is left open with the drum in-
side. If the push cable unwinds, do not
manually twist or force the push cable
back into the non-rotating drum. The
twisting and bending of the push cable
that results from forcing it into the drum
without the use of the outer case to ro-
tate it will damage the push cable. See
Appendix A for instructions on reinsert-
ing the push cable if it has unwound itself
from the drum.
