1.2. SAFETY NOTES
• Do not exceed the maximum allowable input range of any function.
• Do not apply voltage to meter when resistance function is selected.
• Set the function switch OFF when the meter is not in use.
• Remove the battery if meter is to be stored for longer than 60 days.
1.3. WARNINGS
• Set function switch to the appropriate position before measuring.
• When measuring volts do not switch to current resistance modes.
• Do not measure current on a circuit whose voltage exceeds 600V.
• When changing ranges always disconnect the test leads from the circuit
under test.
1.4. CAUTIONS
! Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death.
Read and understand this user manual before operating the meter.
! Always remove the test leads before replacing the battery or fuses.
! Inspect the condition of the test leads and the meter itself for any
damage before operating the meter. Repair or replace if damaged before
use.
! Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are greater
than 25VAC RMS or 35VDC. These voltages are considered a shock
hazard.
! Always discharge capacitors and remove power from the device under
test before performing Diode, Resistance or Continuity tests.
! Voltage checks on electrical outlets can be difficult and misleading
because of the uncertainty of connection to the recessed electrical
contacts. Other means should be used to ensure that the terminals are
not "live".
! If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer,
the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

NOTES: Read and understand all Warning and Caution statements in this
operation manual prior to using this meter. Set the function select switch to
the OFF position when the meter is not in use.
3.1. AC Current Measurements
WARNING: Ensure that the test leads are disconnected from the meter
before making current clamp measurements.
1. Set the Function switch to the 600A range. If the approx. range of
the measurement is not known, select the highest range then move to
the lower ranges if necessary.
2. Press the REL button to zero the meter display.
3. Use Rotary Function switch to select AC 60A 600A range.
4. Press the trigger to open jaw. Fully enclose only one conductor. For
optimum results, center the conductor in the jaw.
5. The clamp meter LCD will display the reading.

3.4. Resistance
1. lnsert the black test lead into the negative COM terminal and the red
test lead into the V positive terminal.
2. Set the function switch to the
Ω.CAP position.
3. Touch the test probe tips across the circuit or component under test.
4. Read the resistance on the LCD display.
3.2. AC Voltage Measurement

3.5. Capacitance Measurements
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, discharge the capacitor under
test before measuring.
1. Set the function switch to the
Ω, CAP position.
2. lnsert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and
the red test lead banana plug into the V positive jack.
3. Touch the test probe tips across the part under test. If "OL" appears
in the display, remove and discharge the component.
4. Read the capacitance value in the display.
5. The display will indicate the proper decimal point and value.
Note: For very large values of capacitance measurement it can take
several minutes before the final reading stabilizes.
3.6. Frequency Measurements
1. lnsert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and
the red test lead banana plug into the V positive jack.
2. Set the function switch to the V~HZ/% Position.
3. Press MODE button to select the Frequency (Hz) or Duty cycle (%).
4. Touch the test probe tips across the part under test.
5. Read the value on the display.
6. The display will indicate the proper decimal point and value.

• If one reading displays a value (typically 0.400V to 0.900V) and
the other reading displays OL, the diode is good.
• If both readings display OL the device is open.
• If both readings are very small or '0', the device is shorted.

the electrical outlet.
2. lf AC voltage is present, the detector light will illuminate.
NOTE: The conductors in electrical cord sets are often twisted. For best
results, rub the probe tip along a length of the cord to assure placing the
tip in close proximity to the live conductor.
NOTE: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity or
other sources of energy may randomly trip the sensor. This is normal
operation.
