WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions, including those given in the accompanying
brochure.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock,
fi
re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Measuring Instrument
Never make measurement on a circuit in which voltage over
600 V exists. Use only leads rated 600 V or better.
Clamp tips are designed not to short the circuit under test. If
equipment under test has exposed conductive parts, however,
extra precaution should be taken to minimize the possibility of
shorting.
Disconnect the test leads from the instrument for current
measurement.
Keep
fi
ngers away from jaws during measurements.
To reduce the risk of electric shock for Resistance, Continuity,
and Capacitance measurements, never use the meter on an
energized circuit. Make sure a capacitor is fully discharged
before touching or attempting to make a measurement.
Do not attempt to make measurement in the presence of
fl
ammablegasses. Otherwise, the use of the instrument may
cause sparking, which can lead to an explosion.
Never attempt to use the instrument if its surface or your hand
is wet.
Do not exceed the maximum allowable input of any measuring
range.
Only test on unenergized circuits unless absolutely necessary.
Check tool functionality on a known circuit
fi
rst.Never
assume tool is working. Assume circuits are live until they
can be proven de-energized.
Do not ground yourself while measuring. Avoid body contact
with earthed or grounded sur-faces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators.
Never remove the case or battery cover during a measurement.
This instrument is to be used only in its intended applications or
conditions. Otherwise, the instrument's safety functions may
not work, resulting in serious personal injury and instrument
damage.
To reduce the risk of injury from shock and arc blasts, always
wear personal protective equipment where live conductors are
exposed.
Never attempt to make measurement if any abnormal
conditions, such as broken case and exposed metal parts are
found on the instrument.
Do not rotate the Rotary Dial while the test leads are being
connected.
Do not install substitute parts or make any modi
fi
cation to the
instrument. For repair or re-calibration, return the tool to a
factory Service/Sales Support Branch or authorized service
station.
Only use Milwaukee test leads with the Milwaukee Clamp
Meters.Inspect test leads before each use. Use clamp meter to
run a continuity test.
Non-Contact Voltage Detection (NCVD):
The LED may not be displayed due to installation condition of
electrical circuit or equipment. Never touch the circuit under
test to avoid possible danger even if the LED for NCVD is not
displayed. Check the functionality of LED on a well-known
power supply prior to measurement. When the LED doesn’t
light up, do not make measurement. NCVD indication is
affected by external voltage, and how the meter is held or
placed.
