XWarning
To prevent possible electrical shock, re, or
personal injury:
• Use the Product only as specied, or the protection
supplied by the Product can be compromised.
• Limit operation to the specied measurement
category, voltage, or amperage ratings.
• Do not touch voltages >30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or
60 V dc.
• Carefully read all instructions.
• Do not exceed the Measurement Category (CAT)
rating of the lowest rated individual component of a
Product, probe, or accessory.
• Do not use the Product around explosive gas, vapor,
or in damp or wet environments.
• Use only correct measurement category (CAT),
voltage, and amperage rated probes, test leads, and
adapters for the measurement.
• Do not work alone.

• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, between
the terminals or between each terminal and earth
ground.
• Comply with local and national safety codes.
Use personal protective equipment (approved
rubber gloves, face protection, and ame-resistant
clothes) to prevent shock and arc blast injury where
hazardous live conductors are exposed.
• Replace the batteries when the low battery indicator
shows to prevent incorrect measurements.
• Keep ngers behind the nger guards on the
probes.
• Measure a known voltage rst to make sure that the
Product operates correctly.
• Do not use and disable the Product if it is damaged.
• Connect the common test lead before the live
test lead and remove the live test lead before the
common test lead.
• Read all safety Information before you use the
Product.
• Remove all probes, test leads, and accessories that
are not necessary for the measurement.
• Before each use, examine the Product. Look for
cracks or missing pieces of the clamp housing
or output cable insulation. Also look for loose or

• Do not use test leads if they are damaged. Examine
the test leads for damaged insulation, exposed
metal, or if the wear indicator shows. Check test
lead continuity.
• Disconnect power and discharge all high-voltage
capacitors before you measure resistance,
continuity, capacitance, or a diode junction.
• Do not hold the Product anywhere above the tactile
barrier. See Figure 1.
• Do not use the current sensor if the wear indicator in
the jaw opening is not visible. See Figure 2.
For safe operation and maintenance of the product:
• Remove batteries to prevent battery leakage and
damage to the Product if it is not used for an
extended period.
• Be sure that the battery polarity is correct to prevent
battery leakage.
• Repair the Product before use if the battery leaks.
• Have an approved technician repair the Product.
• Remove the input signals before you clean the
Product.
• Do not operate the Product with covers removed
or the case open. Hazardous voltage exposure is
possible.
