Replacing the Fuses 

 

To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from any source of voltage 

before removing the meter cover. 

 
• Disconnect the test leads from the meter. 
• Remove the protective rubber holster. 
• Remove the battery cover (two “B” screws) and the battery. 
• Remove the six “A” screws securing the rear cover. 
• Gently remove the old fuse and install the new fuse into the holder. 
• Always use a fuse of the proper size and value (0.5A/1000V fast blow for the 500mA range, 
  10A/1000V fast blow for the 20A range 
• Replace and secure the rear cover, battery and battery cover. 
 

 

To avoid electric shock, do not operate your meter until the fuse cover is in 

place and fastened securely.
