Note: *1 The custom made MΩtest switch is used for hand free and continuous
measurements. When the switch knob is pulled up, the switch is locked
at continuous “ON” position. Thus, the continuous measurements are
enabled without any switch operation.
*2 This switch is used to hold the displayed data during measurement.
When pressed, the displayed value is held and “DH” mark appears in the
display in this condition.
*3 This switch is used to turn on the LED back light.
When pressed, the LED back light is lit for 10 minutes. By pressing this
switch once again, the LED back light will be off.
6. METHOD OF MEASUREMENT
6-1. Precautions for Use
●Always check to make sure that the range selector switch is set to the proper
position.
●Before making measurements, make sure that the terminals and test leads are in
a good condition.
●Before making any measurement, make sure that the pointer of the instrument
correspond to exactly to the zero at the beginning of the scale.
●When MEASURE MΩtest switch is set to “ON” position, a high voltage is being
generated between line and earth terminals.
Do not touch any live parts in the circuit during the measurements.
●When making MΩtest, make sure all power is disconnected in the circuit to be
measured.
6-2. Battery Check
When the battery voltage falls below a specified voltage value, “B” mark will appear
on the display. If this occurs during the measurement, replace all batteries to new
ones as soon as possible.
①To verify the battery charge, set the range selector switch to the highest insulation
resistance test range.
②Connect the tip of line test lead to the alligator clip of earth test lead and press
MEASURE MΩtest switch. If the batteries become exhausted, “B” mark will
appear on the display.

!WARNlNG
●When MEASURE MΩtest switch is pressed during the battery check, a high
voltage is being generated between line and earth test lead.
Do not touch any live parts of the test leads.

6-3. Auto Power Off Function
When a desired range is selected from “OFF” position, the power is turned on
activating the display. If MEASURE MΩtest switch is not pressed within 10
minutes, the automatic power off function will operate to switch the power off
automatically.
To release from this condition, reset the range selector switch again from “OFF”
position or press MEASURE MΩtest switch.
6-4. Measurement of AC Voltage
①Verify the MEASURE MΩtest switch is set to “OFF” position.
②Set the range selector switch to “ACV” range. If the range selector switch is set
to “ACV” position and even MEASURE MΩtest switch is pressed, this tester
works as AC voltage measurement tester.
③Connect the plugs of line test lead and earth test lead into the line and earth
terminals respectively.
④Connect the test leads to the circuit under test. If the voltage is applied to the unit,
HV lamp is turned on.
⑤Read the voltage value in the display after display stabilized.

!WARNlNG
●POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL SHOCK or FIRE HAZARD.
Do not expose the instrument to rain or moisture. Do not operation the
instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
●To avoid damage to the instrument, disconnect test leads before changing
function.
●Never fail to keep the max. 600V AC input to avoid electrical shock or damage.
●To avoid electrical shock or damage, do not apply any voltage to the
instrument when MEASURE MΩtest switch is set to “ON” position.
Set to OFF

6-5. Insulation Resistance Test
①Set the range selector switch to a desired range appropriate to the circuit to be
measured. (Refer to the section 4. “Insulation resistance measurement”).
②Connect the test leads to line and earth terminals.
③Connect the tip of line test lead to the alligator clip of earth test lead and press
MEASURE MΩtest switch. Verify zero MΩis indicated on the display.
④Connect the test leads to the circuit under test and verify HV lamp is turned off.
⑤Press MEASURE MΩtest switch and read the insulation resistance value on the
display.
Note: “OL” mark indicate “over load” and “infinity (∞) of insulation resistance value”.
When “OL” mark is displayed, “∞” mark also appears on the upper right
side of LCD.

●When MEASURE MΩtest switch is set to “ON” position, a high voltage is being
generated between line and earth terminals.
Do not touch any live parts in the circuit during the measurements.
●When making MΩtest, make sure all power is disconnected in the circuit to be
measured.
●Always make sure HV lamp is turned off before pressing MEASURE MΩtest
switch
6-6. Discharging of Capacitors in The Circuit
After the MΩtest has been done, keep to connect the test leads to the circuit
under test and turn off the MEASURE MΩtest switch. The generation of voltage
output is stopped and the discharging circuit is activated, thus, the charged electric
power in the circuit will be discharged.
To verify the discharging condition, observe the HV lamp.
When discharged, HV lamp is turned off (no voltage condition).
Set to ON
One end of load
is grounded

7. REPLACEMENT OF BATTERIES
Before changing batteries, remove all electrical input and set the range selector switch
to “OFF” position. To replace batteries, remove the battery cover located on the unit
back. Loosen a screw on the battery cover by flat blade screw driver or coin. Then,
slowly remove the battery cover.
Replace the six batteries (AA size or LR6) with new ones observing polarity.
Use high-quality batteries which are guaranteed against leakage. If the instrument is left
unused for long periods of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from leakage.
6. REPAIR SERVICE
When requesting for repair service, Please bring the instrument directly to the dealer
where you bought.
When mailing the instrument, always pack it in its original or equivalent packing
materials to avoid any damage during the transportation and also put together with
documents showing your name, address, phone number and defect point.
