5. Measuring Methods
OPERATION CAUTION
Observe all safety precautions when the FUNCTION
switch is set to 250,500V,1000V position. Connect
the meter test leads to the circuit under test before
operating the TEST button. Do not touch the clip ends
of the test leads when the TEST button is pressed.
Some electrical equipment, especially cables, may
retain an electrical charge when disconnected
from the line. It is good practice to discharge such
equipment with grounding straps, or other suitable
devices, before touching or making connections. The
meter automatically discharge the test circuits when
the spring loaded TEST button is released.
IMPORTANT
Remove all power to the circuit under test when
making resistance measurements. If any voltage is
present in the test circuit the LED on the meter scale
plate will light. Immediately disconnect the test leads
and turn off power to test circuit.

●FUNCTION SWITCH :
The FUNCTION switch is used to select the range,
or function desired.
●TEST BUTTON :
The TEST button is normally OFF, press to test.
●Always check the following before testing :
The " " indicator is not showing.
There is no visual damage to the instrument or
test leads.
●Test Lead Continuity
Select the CONTINUITY function and Ω range.
Short the test leads together.
An over-range ("1") indication mean the leads
are faulty or instrument fuse is blown. (See "Fuse
Replacement" section).
●Insulation Resistance Testing:
Warning: Insulation tests should be conducted
on circuits that are de-energised.
Ensure circuits are not live before
commencing testing.
(1) Select the required test voltage (250V, 500V or
1000V) by rotating the FUNCTION switch.
(2) Connect the test leads to the instrument and
to the circuit to be tested. (See connect
diagram). If the "LIVE CIRCUIT" is light, do
not press the TEST button and disconnect the
instrument from the circuit. The circuit is LIVE
and should be de-energised before further
testing.

-6-
(3) Press the TEST button. The value of insulation
resistance in megohms will be displayed.
Caution: Never turn the function dial while
the button is depressed. This may
damage the instrument. Never touch
the circuit during insulation testing.
When testing is complete ensure the TEST button
is released before the test leads are disconnected.
This is because the system may be charged up and
it must be allowed to discharge through the tester's
internal discharge resistor.
●Continuity discharge (Resistance tests)
Warning: Ensure circuit is not live before
commencing testing.

-7-
(1) Select the 20Ω range by rotating the FUNCTION
switch and connect the test leads to the
instrument. Short the tips of the test leads. Press
and hold down the TEST button by twisting it
clockwise.
The display will show the resistance of the
test leads. Adjust the Ω Null control to set the
reading to zero.
(2) Connect the test leads to the circuit under test.
Ensure the circuit is not live by checking that
the live circuit indicator does not light. Read the
value of resistance from the LCD.
●AC voltage test :
Set the FUNCTION switch to ACV. Connect test
leads to circuit being measured. Press TEST button
and read the value of voltage from the LCD.

7. Maintenance
Caution : Always disconnect the test leads from
instrument before batteries or fuse
replacement.
●Batteries Replacement :
Please replace batteries when the " " indicator
Was shown on the LCD.
Disconnect the test leads from the instrument,
remove the battery compartment lid and the
batteries.
Replace with six 1.5V AA batteries, taking care to
observe correct polarity. Alkaline batteries are
recommended.
Replace the battery compartment lid.
●Fuse Replacement :
Open the battery compartment lid. Remove the fuse
cove and the old fuse, and replace with the new
one.
Replace the fuse cover and screw the battery
compartment lid before using the tester.
●Cleaning and Storage:
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and
detergent; do not use abrasives or solvents.
If the meter is not to be used for periods of longer
than 60 days, remove the batteries and store them
separately.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock or damage to the meter,
do not get water inside the case.
