WARNING: The blades are very sharp. Handle this product and spare or
replacement blades with care. The blades may break and cause injury. Wear
protective clothing.
WARNING: ALWAYS wear safety goggles when using this product.
!
WARNING: Never use knife on or near live electrical circuits.
WARNING: To be used by trained person only. High voltage AC and DC
circuits are dangerous. Use extreme caution and use as intended when
testing potentially live circuits. Risk of Electrocution.
WARNING: This product should be used to test or detect insulated wires and
terminals but should not be used to contact Live Circuits. This tester
will not detect voltage in wires that are electrically shielded by metal conduit
or grounded enclosures. Risk of Electrocution.
OPERATION
Before use, test the batteries of the CAM-10 tester by pressing the button on
the tester marked PRESS. A momentary audible tone and flash of the light are
an indication that the unit is working.
WARNING: Always test on known live circuit before use.
To test for voltage:
1. Hold the knife with your thumb on the CAM-10 tester
button marked PRESS, keeping hands and fingers
well away from the sensor (red end).
2. Press down and hold the test button on the tester.
A momentary alert indicates the unit is working.
3. Place the sensor (red end) near the wire or device
to be tested. Maintain a minimum distance of
0.5mm from contacting the wire or device to
be tested. If voltage greater than 50 VAC is
present, the tester light and tone will activate
rhythmically at 10 to 15 cycles second.
To detach the tester from the knife, apply force
to the tester near the Gardner Bender logo and
slide the tester from the holding slot. The tester
can be used to test for voltage after it is detached
per instructions within. Hold the tester as shown,
keeping hands and fingers well away from
the sensor (red end).
CAM-10 BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Remove the Phillips head screw from the bottom of the CAM-10 tester.
®
Lift off the battery cover from the top of the tester. Insert 2 LR44
batteries in the orientation indicated on the side of the battery
cover. Replace cover and screw.
To change the blade, hold the knife securely.
1. Slide the blade button down and forward.
2. Press and hold the blade release button

!
ADVERTENCIA: Nunca use la cuchilla en circuitos eléctricos energizados ni
cerca de ellos.
ADVERTENCIA: Son peligrosos los circuitos de CA y CC de alto voltaje.
Tenga sumo cuidado y utilice de la manera prevista al probar circuitos
potencialmente energizados. Riesgo de electrocución.
ADVERTENCIA: Este probador no detecta el voltaje en cables que tienen
blindaje eléctrico mediante portacables de metal o cierres puestos a tierra.
Riesgo de electrocución.
OPERACIÓN
Antes de usar, pruebe las baterías del probador CAM-10 oprimiendo el botón
en el probador que está marcado PRESS. Un tono audible momentáneo y un
destello de luz son indicaciones de que la unidad está funcionando.
ADVERTENCIA: Siempre pruebe en un circuito energizado conocido antes
de usar.
