IMPORTANT TIP:
When powering-up components, you can increase the life of your
HC-CARGO 211083 switch, if you first press the switch, then contact the tip
to the component. The arcing will take place at the tip instead of the
contacts of the switch.
INTRODUCTION
The HC-CARGO 211083 is the best professional
electrical tester for reducing diagnostic time
in 6 to 24 Volt automotive electrical systems.
After a simple hook-up of the tester to the
vehicle's battery, the automotive technician
can determine at a glance at the red/green LED
indicator, if a circuit is positive, negative or
open without reconnecting hook-up clips from
one battery pole to the other. The HC-CARGO
211083 switch allows the automotive technician
to conduct a positive or negative
battery current to the tip for testing the
function of electrical components without the
use of jumper wires. And yes, it is short-circuit
protected. It tests for bad ground contacts
instantly without performing voltage drop tests.
It allows you to follow and locate short circuits
without wasting precious fuses. The HC-CARGO
211083 can also test for continuity with the
assistance of its auxiliary ground lead. With
a flip of the power switch, you will know at a
glance that your tester is
functioning without running to the battery as
you would otherwise have to do with simple
test lights. The HC-CARGO 211083's long cable
allows you to test along the entire length of the
vehicle without constantly searching for ground
hook-ups.
Before using the tester please read the
instruction book carefully.
WARNING
When the testers switch is depressed battery
current is conducted directly to the tip which
may cause sparks when contacting ground or
certain circuits. Therefore the
NOT be used around flammables such as gasoline
or its vapors. The spark of an energized
CARGO 211083 could ignite these vapors.
Use the same caution as you would when using
an arc welder.
HC-CARGO 211083 is only for use with 6-24 Volt
systems.
