Handle the equipment with care. Avoid dropping,
knocking or otherwise exposing it to damage.
If the unit is exposed to potential contaminants such as
silicone, leaded petrol, halogens, antimony or oxygen
levels above 21%, return it to your local branch of HSS
Hire for re-calibration.
Keep the equipment clean. You will find this less of a
chore if you clean up regularly, rather than wait until the
end of the hire period. Only use a cloth dampened with
water to clean the instrument.
When not in use, store the equipment in its carrycase,
somewhere clean, dry and safe from thieves.
