Safety Information
WARNING
Understand and follow operating instructions
carefully.
• If the equipment is used in a manner not specied
by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the
equipment may be impaired.
• Always use proper terminals, switch position, and
range for measurements.
• To reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do not
use this product around explosive gas or in damp
locations.
• Verify the Meter operation by measuring a known
voltage. If in doubt, have the Meter serviced.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as
marked on Meter, between terminals or between
any terminal and earth ground.
• Avoid working alone so assistance can be rendered.
• Do not use the Tester if the Tester is not operating
properly or if it is wet.
• Individual protective device must be used if
hazardous live parts in the installation where the
measurement is to
be carried out could be accessible.
• Use caution with voltages above 30 Vac rms, 42
Vac peak, or 60 Vdc. These voltages pose a shock
hazard.
• DO NOT USE the test leads when the internal white
insulation layer is exposed.
• DO NOT USE the test leads above maximum
ratings of CAT. environment, voltage and current,
that are indicated on the probe and the probe tip
guard cap.
• DO NOT USE the test leads without the probe tip
guard cap in CAT III and CAT IV environments.
• Probe assemblies to be used for MAINS
measurements shall be RATED as appropriate for
MEASUREMENT CATEGORY III or IV according to
IEC 61010-031 and shall have a voltage RATING of
at least the voltage of the circuit to be measured.
• Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-
voltage capacitors before testing resistance,
continuity.
