CAUTION
THE CURRENT FUNCTIONS ARE PROTECTED BY A FUSE OF
600 VOLT RATING. TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE INSTRUMENT,
CURRENT SOURCES HAVING OPEN CIRCUIT VOLTAGES GREATER
THAN 600 VOLTS DC OR AC MUST NOT BE MEASURED.

NOTE: When taking current measurements, this Meter must be
connected In SERIES with the circuit (or circuit element) under test.
NEVER CONNECT THE TEST LEADS ACROSS A VOLTAGE SOURCE
while the rotary switch is set to Amps. This can cause damage to the
circuit under test or this Meter.

For current measurements of more than 10A use a Inductive Current
Probe.

To Measure Current:

Turn all power to the circuit off or disconnect the circuit from the power
source.

Disconnect, cut or
unsolder the circuit,
creating a place
where the Meter
p r o b e s c a n b e
inserted.
