Compressed Air
Your Exatron handler may require a compressed air supply. If your specific changeover kit requires
compressed air, connect the handler to an 80 PSI (+/- 3PSI) air source. Please refer to the "Air
Requirements" section of the Model 3000B General Operating Specifications for further details.
Using compressed air can be hazardous. It is the responsibility of the customer to properly train all
handler operators in every aspect of the safety practices associated with the use of compressed air.
NEVER operate any Exatron equipment which requires compressed air without an approved air
regulator and shutoff valve.
Moving Parts
Most moving parts of the Model 3000B handler have structural covers. NEVER OPERATE THE
HANDLER WITH ANY COVER REMOVED. Be careful to keep your fingers away from any moving parts
on the handler. Keep all loose-fitting clothing away from moving parts, as well. Do not attempt to service
the handler in any way when any part of the handler is in motion. Use the [PAUSE] button on the handler
controller to stop the handler's operation, or turn the handler off before attempting to access any moving
part of the handler.
Overall System Safety
Typically, the handler is simply one part of a complete test system. It is the responsibility of the user to
properly train all handler operators in all of the safety practices required for every component of the test
system.
Unpacking, Assembling
Your Model 3000B handler has been shipped to you in specially designed containers which should be
safely stored away. If it should become necessary to return the handler to Exatron, these original shipping
containers must be used. Exatron assumes no responsibility for damage during return shipment caused
by improper packing of the handler. If the shipping cartons become misplaced or damaged, new shipping
cartons may be ordered from Exatron.
