DANGER
●
This instrument is designed to work in distribution systems where the line to earth
has a maximum voltage of 300V. Be sure to use it within this rated voltage.
●Do not attempt to make measurement in the presence of flammable gasses,
fumes, vapor or dust. Otherwise, the use of the instrument may cause
sparking, which can lead to an explosion.
●Transformer jaw tips are designed not to short the circuit under test.
If equipment under test has exposed conductive parts, however, extra
precaution should be taken to minimize the possibility of shorting.
●Never attempt to use the instrument if its surface or your hand is wet.
●Do not exceed the maximum allowable input of any measurement range.
●Never open the battery compartment cover when making measurement.
●Never try to make measurement if any abnormal conditions, such as broken
Transformer jaws or case is noted.
●The instrument is to be used only in its intended applications or conditions.
Otherwise, safety functions equipped with the instrument doesn't work, and
instrument damage or serious personal injury may be caused.
#
WARNING
●Never attempt to make any measurement if any abnormal conditions are
noted, such as broken case, cracked test leads and exposed metal part.
●Do not turn the function selector switch with plugged in test leads connected to
the circuit under test.
●Do not install substitute parts or make any modification to the instrument.
Return the instrument to Kyoritsu or your distributor for repair or re-calibration.
●Do not try to replace the batteries if the surface of the instrument is wet.
●Always switch off the instrument before opening the battery compartment
cover for battery replacement.
●Verify proper operation on a known source before starting to use the
instrument or taking action as a result of the indication of the instrument.
#
CAUTION
●Make sure that the function selector switch is set to the appropriate position
before making measurement.
●Always make sure to insert each plug of the test leads fully into the appropriate
terminal on the instrument.
●Make sure to remove the test leads from the instrument before making current
measurement.

5.Preparation for Measurement
5−1 Checking Battery Voltage
Set the function selector switch to any position other than "OFF". When the
display is clear without " BATT " showing, proceed to measurement. When the
display blanks or " BATT " is indicated, replace the batteries according to the
instructions described in section 8. Battery Replacement.
NOTE
The sleep feature automatically turns the instrument off in a certain period of
time after the last switch operation. Therefore, the display may be blank with the
function selector switch set to a position other than "OFF". To operate the
instrument in this case, set the switch back to the "OFF" position, then to the
desired position, or press any button. If the display still blanks, the batteries are
exhausted. Replace the batteries.
5−2 Checking Switch Setting and Operation
Make sure that the function selector switch is set to the correct position and
the data hold function is deactivated. Otherwise, desired measurement cannot
be made.

WARNING
●This instrument is designed to work in distribution systems where the line to
earth has a maximum voltage of 300V. Be sure to use it within this rated
voltage.
●Transformer jaw tips are designed to minimize the possibility of shorting
conductors in the circuit under test. If equipment under test has exposed
conductive parts, however, extra precaution should be taken to avoid possible
shorting.
●Do not make measurement with the battery compartment cover removed.
●Do not make current measurement with the test leads connected to the
instrument.
●Keep your fingers and hands behind the barrier during measurement.
(1) Set the function selector switch to the "400A" or "600A" position.
(2) Press the trigger to open the transformer jaws and clamp onto one
conductor only.
(3) Take the reading on the display.
Note:
◇During current measurement, keep the transformer jaws fully closed.
Otherwise, accurate measurement cannot be made. The maximum
conductor size is 33mm in diameter.
◇When measuring a larger current, the transformer jaws may buzz. This does
not affect the instrument's accuracy.

DANGER
●Always make sure that the circuit under test is powered off.
●Do not make measurement with the battery compartment cover removed.
●Keep your fingers and hands behind the barrier during measurement.
(1) Set the function selector switch to the "Ω/
" position.
(2) Plug the red test lead into the Ωterminal and the black test lead into the
COM terminal.
(3) Check that the display reads "OL". With the test lead prods shorted
together, also check that the buzzer beeps and the display reads "0" .
(4) Connect the test lead prods to the circuit under test and take the reading
on the display. The buzzer beeps the reading is below about 50Ω.
NOTE
◇When shorting the test lead prods together, the display may show a very
small resistance instead of "0". This is the resistance of the test leads.
◇If one of the test leads has an open, the display reads "OL".

7. Other Functions
7−1
Sleep Function
NOTE
The instrument still consumes small amount of battery power in the sleep mode.
Make sure to set the function selector switch to the OFF position after use.
This is a function to prevent the instrument from being left powered on in order to
conserve battery life. This function causes the instrument to automatically enter the
sleep (powered-down) mode about 10 minutes after the last switch or button
operation.
To exit the sleep mode, turn the function selector switch back to "OFF", then to any
other position, or press any button.
How to disable the sleep function:
To disable the sleep function, power on the instrument with the Data Hold
button pressed. "P.OFF" is shown on the display for about 3 seconds after the
instrument is powered on.
To enable the sleep function, power the instrument off, then power it on without
pressing the Data Hold button.
7−2
Data Hold Function
This is a function used to freeze the measured value on the display. Press the
Data Hold button to freeze the reading. The reading will be held regardless of
subsequent changes in input. " H " is shown on the upper left corner of the
display while the instrument is in the Data Hold mode.
To exit the Data Hold mode, press the Data Hold button again.
NOTE:
◇If the instrument in the Data Hold mode enters the sleep mode, the Data
Hold mode will be cancelled.
8.Battery Replacement
#
WARNING
To avoid electric shock hazard, make sure to set the function selector switch to
"OFF" and remove the test leads from the instrument before trying to replace the
batteries.
#
CAUTION
●Do not mix new and old batteries.
●Make sure to install battery in correct polatiry as indicated inside the battery
compartment.
When " BATT " is shown on the display, replace the batteries. Note that when
the battery is completely exhausted, the display blanks without " BATT " shown.
(1) Set the function selector swith to the "OFF" position.
(2) Unscrew and remove the battery compartment on the bottom of the
instrument.
(3) Replace the batteries observing correct polarity. Use two new R03 or
equivalent batteries.
(4) Mount and screw the battery compartment cover.
