5. Preparation for Operation
5.1. Using the test leads
Use only the identical type of test leads supplied with your
meter. These test leads are rated for 1200 V.
Cautions!
* Although the replacement probes are rated for 1200 V, the
maximum rating of your meter is 1000 V DC and AC. If you try
to measure DC voltages above 1000 V DC or AC
rms
, you might
damage your meter and expose yourself to a serious shock
hazard. Use extreme care when you measure high voltages.
* Never connect the probe you plug into the COM terminal to a
source of voltage greater than 1000 V DC/AC
rms
with respect
to earth/ground. This creates a serious shock hazard.
5.2. Using the stand
Use your meter’s stand to prop up the meter. If you prop your
meter on a bench-top, the stand helps provide a better viewing
angle.
To use the stand as a prop, just open it away from the meter and
set it on a flat surface.
