WARNING
Do not lay, place, or throw field wire on or near power lines or transformers. Dangerous high voltages exist at these structures, and severe shock or even death may result from contact between field wire and power lines. Follow the five emergency steps for electric shock. Be careful when using the SB-993/GT during storms, as lightning may pose a shock hazard.

WARNING
Ninety to 100 volts dc may be present on the field wire terminals of the SB-993/GT. Dont take chances.

WARNING
Adequate while ventilation should be provided using TRICHLOROTRIFLUOROETHANE.

Prolonged breathing of vapor should be avoided. The solvent should not be used near heat or open flame, as the products of decomposition are toxic and irritating. Since TRICHLOROTRIFLUOROETHANE dissolves natural oils, prolonged contact with skin should be avoided. When necessary, use gloves (which the solvent cannot penetrate). If the solvent is taken internally, consult a physician immediately. A

Liberated Manuals -- free army and government manuals

Why do I do it? I am tired of sleazy CD-ROM sellers, who take publicly available information, slap watermarks and other junk on it, and sell it. Those masters of search engine manipulation make sure that their sites that sell free information, come up first in search engines. They did not create it... They did not even scan it... Why should they get your money? Why are not letting you give those free manuals to your friends? I am setting this document FREE. This document was made by the US Government and is NOT protected by Copyright. Feel free to share, republish, sell and so on. I am not asking you for donations, fees or handouts. If you can, please provide a link to liberatedmanuals.com, so that free manuals come up first in search engines:
