Important Safety Instructions - GE 34140 Manual De Usuario

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:

• NEVER touch ANYTHING or ANYONE in contact with a
power line. You can be electrocuted. In case of an accident
or emergency, call 911 immediately for help.
• INSPECT your installation site carefully for power lines.
Make sure there is no possibility the antenna, its
mounting structure or your ladder can come into
contact with power lines. Be sure to consider what can go
wrong during installation.
• KEEP the distance between power lines and the antenna
and its mounting structure at least 2 times the combined
height of the antenna and mounting structure added
together. In the event the antenna falls, during or after
assembly, there must be sufficient distance to ensure it
does not come into contact with the power lines.
• KEEP your ladder, antenna and antenna mounting
structure (such as mast, pole, mount) far away from power
lines at all times.
• GROUND the antenna and the antenna mounting
structure in accordance with the NEC electrical
code, all state and local electrical code requirements
• COMPLETE the antenna assembly on the ground prior to
mounting.
• DO NOT use a metal ladder or install the antenna on a
windy day. If the antenna or mast starts to fall, allow it to
fall. Do not attempt to catch the antenna.
• EXERCISE caution when working on a roof.
• INFORM others of the danger of touching power lines or
touching other objects in contact with power lines.
• CONTACT a professional installer in your area to do the
antenna installation if you are unsure how to safely install
and ground this antenna.
