2 GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS
2.1 Glossary
•Operator: qualified person responsible for installing the tool.
•Device: the purchased product.
•Workplace: the place where the operator must carry out her/his work.
2.2 Operator Safety Regulations
2.2.1 General Safety Regulations
•The operator must be completely clear-headed and sober when using the
device; taking drugs or alcohol before or while operating the device is strictly
forbidden.
•The operator must not smoke during device operation.
•The operator must carefully read all the information and instructions in the
technical documents provided with the tool.
•The operator must follow all the instructions provided in the technical
documents.
•The operator must make sure she/he is working in an environment which is
suitable for the operations that must be carried out.
•The operator must report any faults or potentially hazardous situation in
connection with the workplace or the device.
•The operator must carefully follow the safety regulations required for the
workplace in which she/he is working in and for the operations she/he has
been asked to carry out.
2.2.2 Risk of Asphyxiation
Exhaust gases from internal combustion engines, whether petrol
or diesel, are hazardous to your health and can cause serious
harm to your body.
Safety Precautions:
•The workplace must be equipped with an appropriate ventilation and air
extraction system and must be in compliance with standards according to
current national laws.
•Always activate the air extraction system when working in closed
environments.
7
en

2.2.3 Risk of Impact and Crushing
The vehicles which are undergoing A/C system recharging
operations and the devices must be properly blocked during
service, using the specific mechanical brakes.
Safety Precautions:
•Alwaysmakesurethatthevehicleisin neutral gear (orthatitis set in parking
position in case of a vehicle equipped with automatic transmission).
•Always activate the hand brake or parking brake on the vehicle.
•Always block the wheels on the vehicle with the specific mechanical brakes.
•Make sure the device is stable, on a flat surface and that the wheels are
locked with the specific brakes.
2.2.4 Hazards Caused by Moving Parts
Vehicle engines include parts that move, both while running and
when off (ex: the cooling fan is controlled by a thermal switch in
connection with the coolant temperature and can be activated
even when the vehicle is off), that can injure the operator.
Safety Precautions:
•Keep hands away from moving parts.
•Disconnect the engine cooling fan each time the engine you are working on
is still hot. This will avoid the fan from being unexpectedly activated even
when the engine is off.
•Do not wear ties, loose clothes, wrist jewellery or watches when working on
a vehicle.
•Keep connection cables, probes and similar devices away from the moving
parts of the engine.
2.2.5 Risk of Burning or Scalding
The parts that are exposed to high temperatures in engines that
are running or have just stopped could burn the operator.
Remember that catalytic mufflers reach very high temperatures,
able to cause serious burns or even start fires.
Acid in the vehicle batteries is another potential hazard.
Safety Precautions:
•Protect your face, hands, and feet by using suitable protection.
•Avoid contact with hot surfaces, such as spark plugs, exhaust pipes,
radiators and connections within the cooling system.
8

•Make sure there are no oil stains, rags, paper or other inflammable material
near the muffler.
•Avoid splashing electrolyte on skin, eyes and clothes, as it is a corrosive and
highly toxic compound.
2.2.6 Fire and Explosion Hazard
The following are potential fires and/or explosion hazards:
•The types of fuel used by the vehicle and the vapours released by
these fuels.
•The refrigerants used by the A/C system.
•The acid in the vehicle batteries.
Safety Precautions:
•Let the engine cool.
•Do NOT smoke near the vehicle.
•Do NOT expose the vehicle to open flames.
•Make sure that the electrical connections are all well insulated.
•Collect any fuel that might have spilled.
•Collect any refrigerant that might have spilled.
•Make sure you are always working in an environment equipped with a good
ventilation and air extraction system.
•Always activate the air extraction system when working in closed
environments.
•Cover the openings of the batteries with a wet cloth in order to stifle the
explosive gases before proceeding in testing or recharging.
•Avoid causing sparks when connecting cables to the battery.
2.2.7 Noise Hazard
Loudnoisesthatmayoccurwithintheworkplace,especiallyduring
service operations, may damage the operator's hearing.
Safety Precautions:
•Protect your ears with suitable protective ear wear.
2.2.8 High Voltage Hazard
The voltage supply from the mains that powers the devices in the
workplace and the voltage within the vehicle starter system are a
potential shock hazard to the operator.
9
en

Safety Precautions:
•Make sure the electrical system in the workplace is compliant to current
national standards.
•Make sure the device being used is connected to ground.
•Cut off the power supply voltage before connecting or disconnecting cables.
•Do NOT touch the high voltage cables when the engine is on.
•Operate in conditions of insulation from ground.
•Work with dry hands only.
•Keep conductive liquids away from the engine while working.
•Never leave tools on the battery in order to avoid accidental contacts.
2.2.9 Poisoning Hazard
The hoses used to extract the gases can release toxic gases,
dangerous to the operator if exposed to temperatures higher than
250 °C or in case of a fire.
Safety Precautions:
•Contact a doctor immediately should you inhale these gases.
•Use neoprene or PVC gloves when eliminating combustion deposits.
10

5 OPERATION OF THE TOOL'S RADIO DEVICES
Wireless connection with Bluetooth, WiFi and HSUPA technology
Wireless connectivity through Bluetooth, WiFi and HSUPA is a technology
that supplies a standard, reliable method for exchanging information
betweendifferent devices usingradio waves. Manyother products besides
those built by TEXA use this technology, such as mobile phones, portable
devices, Computers, printers, cameras, Pocket PCs etc.
The Bluetooth, WiFi and HSUPA interfaces search for compatible
electronic devices based on the radio signals they emit and establish a
connection. TEXA tools only select and prompt compatible TEXA devices.
This does not exclude the presence of other sources of communication or
disturbance.
