GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING!
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
SA VE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
1. Maintain a safe working environment. Keep the work area well lit. Make sure
there is adequate surrounding workspace. Always keep the work area free of
obstructions, grease, oil, trash, and other debris. Do not use the Security Cam-
era in areas near flammable chemicals, dusts, and vapors.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY
2. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet pr operly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the
grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
3. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the
plug in any way. Double insulation
grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
4. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Nev er use the Power Cord to carry the Adapter
or pull the Adapter from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately.
Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
eliminates the need for the three wire
5. When operating the Security Camera outside, use an outdoor extension
cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated f or outdoor use,
and reduce the risk of electric shock. Also, protect all connections from moisture.
PERSONAL SAFETY
6. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when
mounting the Security Camera. Do not use power equipment while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention
may result in serious personal injury.
7. Do not overreach when mounting the Security Camera. Keep proper f ooting
and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control in
unexpected situations.
8. Wear eye protection when mounting the Security Camera. Make sure to
wear ANSI approved safety impact eye goggles. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

GROUNDING
WARNING!
Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the
outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with
the tool. Ne ver remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the
tool if the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by
a service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
DOUBLE INSULA TED TOOLS: T OOLS WITH TWO PRONG PLUGS
1. The Adapter for the Security Camera is marked “Double Insulated” and does not
require grounding. The Adapter has a special double insulation system which
satisfies OSHA requirements and complies with the applicable standards of
Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard Association, and the
National Electrical Code. (See Figure A.)
2. Double insulated products may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in
the following illustration. (See Figure A.)

EXTENSION CORDS
*
(
)
1.
Grounded
tools require a three wire extension cord.
Double Insulated
tools
can use either a two or three wire extension cord.
2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge
extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a
serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of pow er and possible tool damage.
(See Figure B.)
3. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.
For e xample, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.
(See Figure B.)
4. If using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure
each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. (See Figure B.)
5. If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate
amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size.
(See Figure B.)
6. If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the suffix
suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
7. Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified
electrician before using it.
