9. Do not use the test leads when the envelope is damaged ; replace the leads with new
ones.
10. Do not hold the test leads over the brim at the test pin end when measuring.
11. Be careful not to apply over-voltage when measuring pulsating waves or waveforms
including pulses.
12. Check the device at least once a year.
13. Do not switch to other ranges during measurement.
15. The multitester restricts in use in indoor.
14. Do not use the product for line measurement such as motors that generate induced
voltage or voltage surges.
1-2 Product description
Application and features
Application… This product is a portable learning kit designed for measurement of small-
capacity electric circuits. The product is suitable for measurement of small
communication devices, household appliances, lamp line voltage and
batteries.
Features….... 1) Equipped with lightweight, small, high-sensitivity and shock resistant-
type taut band meter.
2) Basic functions include measurement of DCV, ACV, DCA and Ω.
In addition, the battery check range allows inspection of 1.5V-dry
battery at an actual load (20Ω).
3) Direct-mount test leads ensure no need to worry about missing of leads.
Convenient storage space within the main body available.
4) Panel protection cover equipped ; also acts as a stand.
5) Hand strap convenient for carrying.

Store the test leads in the storage space as illustrated in
the right figure (Fig 1-3) when you do not use the
device. How to store : make three small rings with the
lead lines, put them into the storage space and then put
the test rods into the space, the test pin side first.
1-4 Measuring procedure
1
Pre-operation check
Always inspect the main body, test leads and fuse before use.
1. Check if there is any damage in the appearance due to drop shock, etc. Do not use
the product if any damage is found.
2. There is a danger of electric shock if the cord of the test leads is damaged or the core
wire is exposed. Do not use the product in such conditions.
3. Check and ensure that the test leads or the internal fuse is not broken.
(See P. 12 ‘Maintenance’ / Internal Fuse, a-(3))
2Preparation before measurement
1) Meter zero adjustment
Turn the zero adjuster of the meter to adjust the needle to zero at the left end of the
scale. You do not have to frequently carry out this zero adjustment operation, though
you should be careful about zero adjustment because deviation of the needle indicator
from the zero point will lead to indication errors. Zero adjustment is a basic procedure
and hence important to practice when you use measuring devices. See the figure below
for the method.
2) Turn the range selector knob to select the measurement range to be used.
Note) Indication error may become larger if
you use the meter in a standing
position because the meter is not
placed horizontally.
Turn to adjust the
needle to the zero
scale here.
