4. OPERATION
IMPORTANT: Before high voltage electricians protective gloves are used, they
should be visually checked, and also tested for air leakage. Any perforation or deterioration to the glove could result in injury or fatality
due to the wearer coming into contact with high voltage electricity.
4.1. After carrying out a visual inspection of the high voltage glove, place the cuff end over the GT117 Glove Tester and secure it in place
using the rubber rings supplied.
4.2. Using the plunger in the underside of the glove tester inflate the glove until it has sufficient pressure to remain upright and free from
creasing (fig.1).
NOTE: DO NOT over-inflate as damage to the glove may occur (see fig.2)
4.3. Check the glove inflation after one minute. There should be no significant loss of pressure and the glove should have retained its
original inflated shape.
4.4. Release the rubber securing ring and remove the glove.
NOTE: It is imperative for user safety that high voltage gloves are tested before use. It is the responsibility of the wearer to ensure the
gloves are in a sound condition and are the correct type for the work being carried out. Any glove that is defective must NOT be
used.
4.5. If the item becomes soiled it should be cleaned as soon as possible with soap and water not exceeding 65
