WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION ENCLOSED.
READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THE MACHINE.
IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE EMPLOYER TO PLACE THE INFORMATION IN THIS MANUAL
INTO THE HANDS OF THE OPERATOR.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN INJURY.
SAFETY INFORMATION
This series digital multimeters have been designed
according to IEC-61010 concerning electronic measuring
instruments with a measurement category (CAT Il 250V)
and pollution degree 2.
Warning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, follow
these guidelines:
a. Do not use the meter if it is damaged. Before you use
the meter, inspect the case. Pay particular attention to
the insulation surrounding the connectors.
b. lnspect the test leads for damaged insulation or
exposed metal.
Check the test leads for continuity. Replace damaged
test leads before you use the meter.
Do not use the test leads with other equipment.
c. Do not use the meter if it operates abnormally.
Protection may be impaired. When in doubt, have the
meter serviced.
d. Do not operate the meter around explosive gas, vapor,
or dust.
e. Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on
the meter, between terminals or between any terminal
and earth ground.
f. Before use, verify the meter’s operation by measuring a
known voltage.
g. When measuring current, turn off circuit power before
connecting the meter in the circuit. Remember to
place the meter in series with the circuit.
h. When servicing the meter, use only specified
replacement parts.
i. Use caution when working with voltage above
30V ac rms, 42V peak, or 60V dc. Such voltages pose
a shock hazard.
j. When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the
finger guards on the probes.
k. When making connections, connect the common test
lead before you connect the live test lead. When you
disconnect test leads, disconnect the live test lead first.
l. Remove the test leads from the meter before you open
the battery cover or the case.
m. Do not operate the meter with the battery cover or
portions of the case removed or loosened.
n. To avoid false readings, which could lead to possible
electric shock or personal injury, replace the batteries
as soon as the low battery indicator (
) appears.
o. To avoid electric shock, don’t touch any naked
conductor with hand or skin.
p. Remaining endangerment
When an input terminal is connected to dangerous live
potentiel, it is to be noted that this potential at all other
terminals can occur!
q.
CAT Il
- Measurement category Il is for measurements
performed on circuits directly connected to low voltage
installation.
(Examples are measurements on household appliances,
portable tools and similar equipments.)
Do not use the meter for measurements within
Measurement Categories Ill and IV.
Caution
To avoid possible damage to the meter or to the
equipment under test, follow these guidelines:
a. Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors
before lasting resistance, diode, continuity, temperature
or capacitor.
b. Use the proper tenminals, function, and range for your
measurements.
c. Before measuring current check the meter’s fuse and
turn off the power to the circuit before connecting the
meter to the circuit.
d. Before rotating the range switch to change functions,
remove the test leads or the clamp from the circuit
under test.
e. Before inserting transistor to the adapter, always be
sure all test leads have been removed from the mater.
f. Remove test leads from the meter before opening the
battery cover or the case.
