1.1 Safety Instructions

ROSCOPE 1000/i2000 Handheld Inspection Device Safety

1. Do not use in explosive atmospheres such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or

2. Do not expose to corrosive chemicals.

3. The imager is water-proof to 9m depth however the use of the handheld device should be

limited to dry environments (as it is not water proof).

1.2 General Safety Rules

WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or se- rious injury. The term „power tool“ in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. Markings in this document: Danger! This sign warns against the danger of personal injuries. Caution! This sign warns against the danger of property damage and damage to the environment. Call for actionENGLISH16

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a po- wer tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of in attention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, chan- ging accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfami- liar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instruc- tions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5) Battery tool use and care

a) Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. b) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. c) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other bat- tery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. d) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.ENGLISH 17 e) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical re- placement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

3. Function of the unit

The ROLOC PLUS is intended to be used with the Module 25/16 and the ROSCOPE 1000/i2000 handheld viewing device. The ROSCOPE 1000/i2000 handheld viewing device is disconnected from the Module 25/16 once the blockage is identified and located, and it is then reattached to the ROLOC PLUS line detection device to locate the transmitting SONDE on the Module 25/16 imager reel. All (3) units, when used together, give the professionsl the means to accurately iden- tify and locate the exact position of a damaged or blocked pipe or drain line. Note: Any other transmitting SONDE with compatible frequencies can also be located by using the Module ROLOC PLUS with the ROSCOPE handheld. IMPORTANT NOTE: It is always recommended to contact your local utility (BEFORE YOU DIG) to verify the location of any potentially harmful buried wires or gas lines. PLEASE NOTE: “Not” all lines will transmit an appropriate signal such that this (or any other) line tracer can detect them, and other utilities, such as gas lines, have “no” electrical charge what so ever. This tool should “not” take the place of standard safety protocol. Always contact your local utility before you dig to avoid potentially harmful or fatal mistakes!

3.2 Standard Equipment

Only one device should be connected to the unit at a time. Always make sure the unit is off when installing or removing imagers or other accessories. To use the ROSCOPE 1000/i2000 inspection device, the 17mm imager or the Module ROLOC PLUS must be connected to the handheld device. To secure connector to the handheld device, make sure the key and slot (Figure 2 and 3) are properly aligned. Once they are aligned, hand- tighten the knurled nut to hold the connection in place. Slot Key Figure 2 - Cable Connections (Connector Style A, Black Color) NOTE: Connector is the same for either ROSCOPE 1000/i2000 imager (or) Module ROLOC PLUS. Slot for Connector Style B Figure 3 – Cable Connections (Connector Style B, Silver Color) NOTE: Connector Style B is used to attach previous versions of the ROSCOPE Imager Cable.ENGLISH 19

1.8 m (4’) cable extensions are available, for Connector A imager only, to increase the length of

your cable up to 9 m (35’) in length. To install an extension, first remove the imager cable from the handheld device by loosening the knurled nut. Connect the extension(s) to the handheld device as described above (Figure 2). The keyed end of the imager connects to the slotted end of the extension.
