The test system is built according to the state of the art and the recognized safety rules. Nevertheless, risks to the life and limb of the user or third parties can arise when handling the test system. In particular, faults or operating states that can impair the safety of the users make it mandatory to shut down the equipment (main switch). In this case, the intended condition must be properly restored (for example, by maintenance).
