Warning
•
Do not use the tester if it is damaged or operating
abnormally. Protection may be impaired.
•
Before each use:
Make sure the battery door is closed and latched.
Inspect the tester and test leads. Look for cracks,
missing plastic, exposed metal, or damaged
insulation. Replace damaged test leads before using
the tester.
Verify the tester’s operation by measuring a known
voltage.
Perform the Battery Test to avoid false readings due
to a low battery.
•
Replace the batteries as soon as the low battery
indicator (
M
) appears.
•
Do not use the tester around explosive gas, vapor or
dust.
•
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on
the tester, between terminals or between any terminal
and earth ground.
•
When servicing the tester, use only specified
replacement parts.
•
Use caution when working above 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac
peak, or 60 V dc.
•
When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the
finger guards on the probes.
•
Connect the common test lead before you connect the
live test lead. Disconnect the live test lead first.

60 V dc is present across the leads.
The LED can also glow at lower voltages. Be aware that such
voltages pose a shock hazard.
