Warnings: Read Before Using
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury,
follow these guidelines:
•
If the tester does not power up immediately after
connecting it to the mains outlet disconnect and
verify that the mains outlet is correctly wired.
•
Use the tester only as specified in this manual, or the
protection provided by the tester might be impaired.
•
The tester shall not be used for measurements in
electrical installations.
•
When conducting tests do not touch the appliance as
some tests involve high voltages and high currents.
•
Do not use the tester around explosive gas, vapour
or dust, or in wet environments.
•
Inspect the tester before using it. Do not use the
tester if abnormal conditions of any sort are noted
(such as a faulty display, broken case, etc.).
•
Use only test leads and probes supplied with the
tester, or indicated by Fluke as suitable for the tester.
•
Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or
exposed metal. Check test lead continuity. Replace
damaged leads before using the tester.
•
When testing, always be sure to keep your fingers
behind the safety barriers on the test leads.
•
Never open the tester’s case because dangerous
voltages are present. There are no user replaceable
parts in the tester.
•
Have the tester serviced only by qualified personnel.
•
The tester must be properly earthed. Only use a
supply socket that has a protective earth contact. If
there is any doubt as to the effectiveness of the
supply socket earth, do not connect the tester. Do
not use a two-conductor adapter or extension cord;
this will break the protective ground connection.
•
The tester has been set for a nominal 240 V ac –
50 Hz operation, it must never be connected to a
higher voltage.
•
The tester may only be connected to a correctly
wired mains socket protected for a maximum current
rating of 13 A.
•
The mains supply is never to be connected to the IEC
lead test connector or to the appliance test
connector.
•
When carrying out Earth Bond tests, regularly zero
the Earth Bond test lead.
•
Under certain test conditions the test socket may
have mains potential with a maximum current of
13 A.
•
If the tester continuously emits a two tone sound,
you should unplug it immediately as this indicates a
dangerous condition.
