BEFORE USE
READ ALL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE. FOR
INTENDED USE ONLY. Protection provided by this product
may be impaired if used with accessories not provided by the
manufacture or if used as in a manner other than specified within.
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: To assure that the unit is operating properly,
ALWAYS test on a known live circuit be fore use. Keep hands and
fingers on the tester and away from the sensor (red end). 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 tester 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.
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.
MODULAR VOLTAGE TESTING HAND TOOLS

ANTES DEL USO
LEA TODAS LAS INSTRUCCIONES OPERATIVAS ANTES DEL
USO. SÓLO PARA EL USO PREVISTO.
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: Para asegurar que la unidad esté funcionando
correctamente. SIEMPRE pruebe en un circuito energizado
conocido antes de usar. Mantenga las manos y los dedos en
el probador y alejados del sensor (extremo rojo). 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.
Para probar el voltaje:
1. Sostenga el probador con el
pulgar en el botón del probador
marcado PRESS, manteniendo
