◆◆◆◆ PRECAUTIONS BEFORE OPERATION ◆◆◆◆

Cautions for high voltage

High voltages from hundreds volts to tens of thousands volts are to be applied to the electronic equipmentsuch radio and radar devices You do not face any danger during normal operation, but sufficient cares arerequired for maintenance, inspection and adjustment of their internal components

(Authorized maintenance personnel alone are permitted to implement maintenance, check-ups or adjustment

of internal components.)

High voltages of tens of thousands volts are so dangerous as to bring an instantaneous death from electricshock, but even voltages of hundreds volts may sometimes lead to a death from electric shock To preventsuch an accident, make it a rule to turn off the power button, discharge capacitors with a wire surelyearthed on an end and make sure that internal parts are no longer charged before you touch any parts insidethese devices At the time, wearing dry cotton gloves ensures you further to prevent such danger It is also

a necessary caution to put one of your hands in the pocket and not to use your both hands at the same time

It is also important to select a stable foothold always to prevent additional injuries once you were shocked

by electricity If you were injured from electric shock, disinfect the burn sufficiently and get it taken care

of promptly

What to do in case of electric shock

When finding a victim of electric shock, turn off the power source and earth the circuit immediately If it

is impossible to turn off the circuit, move the victim away promptly using insulators such as dry wood plateand cloth without touching the victim directly

In case of electric shock, breathing may stop suddenly if current flows to the respiration center in the brain

If the shock is not so strong, artificial respiration may recover breathing When shocked by electricity, thevictim will come to look very bad with weak pulse or without beating, resulting in unconsciousness andrigidity

(3) Call a physician or ambulance immediately or ask someone to call a doctor.

(4) Lay the victim on his back and loosen his necktie, clothes, belt, etc

(5) a Examine the victim’s pulse

b Examine his heartbeat bringing your ear close to his heart

c Examine his breathing bringing the back of your hand or your face close to his face

d Check the size of the pupils of his eyes

(6) Open the victim’s mouth and take out artificial teeth, cigarette or chewing gum if any Keep his mouthopen, stretch his tongue and insert a towel or the like in his mouth to prevent the tongue from suffocating.(If it is hard to open his mouth due to set teeth, open it with a screwdriver and insert a towel in thismouth.)

(7) Then, close his mouth so that foaming mucus does not accumulate inside

✩ When pulse is beating but breathing has stopped

(1) Tilt the victim’s head back as far as this face looks back (A pillow may be inserted under his neck.)(2) Push his jaw upward to open his throat wide (to spread his airway)

(3) Pinch the victim’s nostrils and take a deep breath, block his mouth completely with yours and blowinto his mouth strongly Take a deep breath again and blow into his mouth Continue this 10 to 15times a minute (blocking his nostrils)

(4) Carefully watch that he has recovered his natural breathing and stop practicing artificial respiration.(5) If it is difficult to open the victim’s mouth, insert a rubber or vinyl tube into one of his nostrils andblow into it blocking the other nostril and his mouth completely

(6) When the victim recovers consciousness, he may try to stand up suddenly, but let him lie calmly andserve him with a cup of hot coffee or tea to keep him warm and quiet (Never give him alcoholicdrinks.)

Method of mouth-to-mouth respiration by raising head

When you tilt his head backward, thevictim, in most cases, opens his mouth tothe air This makes mouth-to-mouthrespiration easy

Cover his mouth as widely as possiblewith yours and press your cheek againsthis nose →(B), or, pinch his nostrils

with your fingers to prevent air fromleaking → (C)

Blow into his lungs

Continue blowing into his mouth until hisbreast swells Blow into his mouth asquickly as possible for the first 10 times

✩ When both pulse and breathing have stopped

When no pulse has come not to be felt, his pupils are open and no heartbeat is heard, cardiac arrest issupposed to have occurred and artificial respiration must be performed

(1) Place your both hands, one hand on the other, on the lower one third area of his breastbone and compresshis breast with your elbows applying your weight on his breast so that it is dented about 2cm (repeatcompressing his breast 50 times or so a minute) (Cardiac massage)

(2) In case of one rescuer,

Repeat cardiac massages about 15 times and blow into his mouth 2 times quickly, and repeat thiscombination

In case of two rescuers,

One person repeats cardiac massages 5 times while the other person blows into his mouth once, andthey shall repeat this combination (Cardiac massage and mouth-to-mouth respiration)

(3) Examine his pupils and his pulse sometimes When the both have returned to normal, stop the artificialrespiration, serve him with a cup of coffee or tea and keep him warm and calm while watching himcarefully Commit the victim to a medial specialist depending on his condition To let him recoverfrom the mental shock, it is necessary for persons concerned to understand his situations and thenecessary treatments
