• Find the room emergency power-off (EPO) switch, disconnecting switch, or electrical outlet. If an electrical

accident occurs, you can then operate the switch or unplug the power cord quickly.

• Do not work alone under hazardous conditions or near equipment that has hazardous voltages.
• Disconnect all power before:

– Performing a mechanical inspection
– Working near power supplies
– Removing or installing main units

• Before you start to work on the machine, unplug the power cord. If you cannot unplug it, ask the customer

to power-off the wall box that supplies power to the machine, and to lock the wall box in the off position.

• If you need to work on a machine that has

exposed

electrical circuits, observe the following precautions:

– Ensure that another person, familiar with the power-off controls, is near you.

Attention:

Another person must be there to switch off the power, if necessary.

– Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment; keep the other hand in your

pocket or behind your back.

Attention:

An electrical shock can occur only when there is a complete circuit. By observing the above

rule, you may prevent a current from passing through your body.

– When using testers, set the controls correctly and use the approved probe leads and accessories for

that tester.

– Stand on suitable rubber mats (obtained locally, if necessary) to insulate you from grounds such as

metal floor strips and machine frames.

Observe the special safety precautions when you work with very high voltages; Instructions for these
precautions are in the safety sections of maintenance information. Use extreme care when measuring
high voltages.

• Regularly inspect and maintain your electrical hand tools for safe operational condition.
• Do not use worn or broken tools and testers.
•

Never assume

that power has been disconnected from a circuit. First,

check

that it has been powered off.

• Always look carefully for possible hazards in your work area. Examples of these hazards are moist floors,

non-grounded power extension cables, power surges, and missing safety grounds.

• Do not touch live electrical circuits with the reflective surface of a plastic dental mirror. The surface is

conductive; such touching can cause personal injury and machine damage.

• Do not service the following parts

with the power on

when they are removed from their normal operating

places in a machine:
– Power supply units
– Pumps
– Blowers and fans
– Motor generators
– Similar units as listed above
This practice ensures correct grounding of the units.

• If an electrical accident occurs:

– Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.
– Switch off power.
– Send another person to get medical aid.

Safety inspection guide

The purpose of this inspection guide is to assist you in identifying potentially unsafe conditions. As each
machine was designed and built, required safety items were installed to protect users and service technicians
from injury. This guide addresses only those items. You should use good judgment to identify potential
safety hazards due to attachment of non-Lenovo features or options not covered by this inspection guide.

If any unsafe conditions are present, you must determine how serious the apparent hazard could be and
whether you can continue without first correcting the problem.
