Important Safety Information

WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result
in death or serious injury.
CAUTION, used with the safety alert symbol, indicates a hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE is used to address practices not related to personal injury.
• Underground cables can carry high voltage. Have all underground cables
marked before you dig to repair or bury your wire. In most areas this is a
free service. Avoid these cables when you dig.
• Follow all safety instructions for your power tools. Be sure to always wear
your safety goggles.
• Do not install, connect, or remove your system during a lightning storm. If the
storm is close enough for you to hear thunder, it is close enough to create
hazardous surges.
• Risk of electric shock. Use the transmitter indoors in a dry location only.
• Risk of injury. Wire on top of the ground may be a trip hazard. Use care in
how you place your wires.
• Watch where you are walking. Stakes driven into the ground can create
obstacles that could cause you to trip.
• Laceration is possible from sharp edges if the telescoping handle
becomes broken.
• This product is not a toy. Keep it away from the reach of children.
• Connect power to the wire break location transmitter using the supplied
12VAC power adaptor. Damage to the transmitter will occur if an improper
adaptor is used.
• It is not recommended to use rechargeable batteries. Battery life would be
very short with a rechargeable battery.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix standard, alkaline or rechargeable batteries.
• Exhausted batteries should be removed immediately. Do not dispose of
batteries with household waste.
