The Lynx-CustomFit® Splice-On Connector is designed and
manufactured to assure personal safety. Improper operation
can result in bodily injury and serious damage to this product.
Please read and observe all warnings instructions given in this
operation manual.
Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes when
handling optical fiber.
Never look into the end of a microscope or optical
cable connected to an optical output device that is
operating. Laser radiation is invisible, and direct
exposure can severely injure the human eye.
Alcohol is flammable, causes irritation and is harmful
if swallowed or inhaled. Keep alcohol away from
heat, sparks, skin, and avoid contact with eyes.
In the case of the work at the high place, please be
careful not to drop an assembling tool.
