The following safety information must be observed to insure maximum
personal safety during the operation of this meter:
Do not use in wet environments.
■
Measurements beyond the maximum selected range must not be attempted.
■
Extreme care must be taken when measuring above 50 V, especially on live
■
bus-bars.
To measure voltage, the instrument must not be switched to a current or
■
resistance range, or to the diode check or buzzer position.
Circuits must be de-energised and isolated before carrying out resistance
■
tests.
The rotary selector switch must only be turned after removing test
■
connections.
All external voltages must be disconnected from the instrument before
■
removing the battery.
Test leads and prods must be in good order, clean, and with no broken or
■
cracked insulation.
UK Safety Authorities recommend the use of fused test leads when measuring
■
voltage on high energy systems.
Replacement fuses must be of the correct type and rating.
■
The instrument must not be used if any part of it is damaged.
■
Check for correct instrument operation by testing a known voltage before
■
and after use. Do not use if misleading results are obtained.
