Thank you for purchasing the HAKKO FG-460 Footwear Tester.

The HAKKO FG-460 is a tester for determining the anti-static performance of safety 

shoes while worn by the operator. 

The operator needs only to step onto the tester plate

with one’s shoes on and gently press the pad on the tester by hand.

The tester determines whether resistance is within the range specified in JIS T8103 and, 

if the pair of shoes is good, displays the range that resistance falls in. 

Please read this manual before operating the HAKKO FG-460.

Keep this manual readily accesible for reference.
