SAFETY INFORMATION
The following safety information must be observed to insure maximum
personal safety during the operation at this meter:
.
Do not use the meter if the meter or test leads look damaged, or if you
suspect that the meter is not operating properly.
.
Never ground yourself when taking electrical measurements. Do not
touch exposed metal pipes, outlets, fixtures, etc., which might be at
ground potential. Keep your body isolated from ground by using dry
clothing, rubber shoes, rubber mats, or any approved insulating
material.
.
Turn off power to the circuit under test before cutting, unsoldering, or
breaking the circuit. Small amounts of current can be dangerous.
.
Use caution when working above 60V dc or 30V ac rms. such voltages
pose a shock hazard.
.
When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards on
the probes.
.
Never apply voltage or current to the meter that exceeds the specified
maximum:
.
NEVER connect the meter leads across a voltage source while the
function switch is in the current, resistance, or diode mode. Doing so
can damage the meter.
.
Always discharge filter capacitors in power supplies and disconnect
the power when making resistance or diode tests.
.
Do not measure voltage if the voltage on the "COM" input jack exceeds
500V above earth ground.
.
Never apply voltage or current to the meter that exceeds the specified
maximum:
