CAUTION
To protect yourself, think "Safety First":
• Comply with local and national safety codes.
• Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as face shields, insulating
gloves, insulating boots, and/or insulating mats.
• Before each use:
- Perform a continuity test by touching the metal tips of the test leads
together to verify the functionality of the battery and test leads.
- Use the 3 Point Safety Method. (1) Verify meter operation by measuring a
known voltage. (2) Apply meter to circuit under test. (3) Return to the
known live voltage again to ensure proper operation.
• Always work with a partner.
• Remove the batteries for storage or if the meter will not be used for longer than
one month. Battery leakage will compromise the safety of the meter and cause
damage to internal components.
