2. Safety
Transport and Installation
Warnings – Markings on the instrument itself
Markings on the instrument showing the warning triangle indicate that the correct operat-
ing instructions (as defined in these Instructions for Use) must be followed when operating or
replacing the item marked. Failure to adhere to these instructions may result in an accident,
personal injury, damage to the instrument or accessory equipment.
Some instrument surfaces become hot during operation. They are marked with this
warning label. Touching these surfaces may cause burns.
Once unpacked, the instrument may be transported only in an upright position.
Follow the unpacking instructions carefully to avoid damage to the instrument!
Prior to every transport in which it is possible for the instrument to be shaken, tilted, or lifted,
it must be cleaned for transport – otherwise the interior of the instrument can be severely dam-
aged.
Plug the instrument only into a grounded power socket. Do not interfere with the grounding
function by using an extension cord without a ground wire.
Make sure to observe the voltage settings!
The set voltage CANNOT be changed by the user.
Severe damage may occur if the instrument is connected to a power supply voltage other than
that to which it was originally set.
The installation location must be well-ventilated; there should be no ignition sources there of
any kind. The chemicals to be used in the Leica ASP300 S are both flammable and noxious.
Do not operate the instrument in rooms with explosion hazard.
Extreme temperature fluctuations between storage facility and setup site as well as high
humidity may cause condensation to form. If this is the case, wait at least two hours before
switching on the instrument. Failure to comply with this may cause damage to the instrument.
