Precautions
To avoid personal injury or damage to property, review and comply with the
following safety precautions.
Use product only as specified.
Do not overload. To avoid electric shock or fire hazard, do not apply any
potential that exceeds the maximum rating of the probe and/or the probe
accessory, whichever is less.
Connect and disconnect properly. To avoid electric shock or fire hazard, always
make the connections from the probe input leads to the probe accessory that
you intend to use before making any connections to a voltage source. Do not
connect or disconnect accessories to a votage source unless they are first
connected to the probe input leads.
Use only accessories compatible with the probe. Use only accessories that are
rated for the application. Substituting other accessories may create a potential
shock or burn hazard. Ensure connections between probe input leads and probe
accessories are secure before connecting them to a voltage source.
Comply with voltage derating curve. When measuring higher frequency signals,
comply with the Voltage vs. Frequency Derating Curve (see Page 6).
Observe all terminal ratings. To avoid electric shock or fire, do not use the
probe above the input limits shown on the probe as well as all accessories.
Do not remove probe casing. Removing the probe’s case or touching exposed
connections may result in electric shock.
Use only within operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or explosive
atmospheres. Keep product surfaces clean and dry.
Handle with care. Probe accessory tips are sharp. They can puncture skin or
cause other bodily injury if not handled properly.
Keep fingers behind the finger guard of the probe accessories.
Do not operate with suspected failures. Before each use, inspect the probe and
accessories for any damage such as tears or other defects in the probe body,
cable jacket, accessories, etc. If any part is damaged, cease operation
immediately and sequester the probe from inadvertent use.
