Chapter 2: General Safety Rules
Always put safety first! It is your responsibility!
It is always important to stay alert to work with a thrust stand. The enclosure protects the
operators under most circumstances, however, it is not a guarantee of security and any
abuse or misuse of the enclosure may result in damage to the equipment or injury to the
users.
To ensure safety, please follow these instructions:
1. Wear safety goggles during a test.
2. Before construction, make sure you have all the components and tools needed.
3. Inspect all fasteners before every experiment and as often as possible.
4. Do not place the enclosure near the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
5. Always keep your work area clean, do not work on surfaces that are dirty with oil.
Small metal chips may be blown up and hit the propeller by accident. Clean your
testing room before every test.
6. Respect the Murphy’s law. If you think something might go wrong, it will.
7. Make sure you are dressed for safety. The mesh may be sharp, wear gloves during
assembly. Do not wear jewelry or long clothing when operating the tool.
8. Do not let children around the Series 1520/1580/1585.
9. Do not use or assemble the tool alone.
10. Do not substitute parts or modify the instrument.
11. Always disconnect the power source before opening the door on the enclosure.
12. Do not store anything near or above the enclosure, especially when performing a test.
13. Always keep your enclosure clear of debris.
14. The enclosure should be suitably rated for containing a propeller failure. It should
also protect in case the Series 1520/1580/1585 comes apart (loose screw or
mechanical failure).
15. Make sure nobody is in the spinning area of the thrust stand
