Diode Measurement
Test the voltage drop in diodes.
1.
Turn the Range Selector Switch
to the Diode (
) position.
2.
Plug the red Test Lead into the
VΩmA (Center) Jack. Plug the black
Test Lead into the Com (Bottom)
Jack. Switch the Multimeter ON.
3.
Connect the red probe to the anode of
the diode and the black to the cathode.
4.
The approximate forward voltage drop of
the diode will be displayed in mV. If the
connection is reversed only “1” will be shown.
Battery Charge Measurement
Test the amount of charge left in batteries.
NOTE:
This setting is for testing the charge of
small 9V or 1.5V batteries only. Never use
this setting to test automotive or lead-acid
batteries.
The high current could cause
damage to the meter and/or cause severe
personal injury.
Use the appropriate
DC Voltage setting to test the open circuit
voltage of such batteries instead.
1.
Turn the Range Selector Switch
to the Battery (
) position.
2.
Plug the red Test Lead into the
VΩmA (Center) Jack. Plug the black
Test Lead into the Com (Bottom)
Jack. Switch the Multimeter ON.
3.
Connect the red probe to the positive
terminal of the battery and the
black to the negative terminal.
4.
The battery amperage under a load of 370
mW will be displayed to a resolution of .1mA.
5.
Normal amperage:
For a standard 9V (6LR61) battery = 25 mA
6.
For a 1.5 V “AA” (LR6) battery = 4 mA
7.
To prevent accidents, turn off the
tool and disconnect its power supply
after use. Clean, then store the tool
indoors out of children’s reach.
User-Maintenance Instructions
Procedures not specifically explained in this manual must
be performed only by a qualified technician.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK:
Turn the Power Switch of the tool to its “OFF” position and remove the test leads
before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication
1.
BEFORE EACH USE,
inspect the general
condition of the tool. Check for loose
screws, misalignment or binding of moving
parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged
electrical wiring, and any other condition
that may affect its safe operation.
2.
AFTER USE,
clean external surfaces
of the tool with clean cloth.
3.
Remove battery if not in use for long periods.
4.
Store unit in a dry location.
