Battery Replacement
All PFM testers use four AA size alkaline batteries . These batteries will normally provide approximately 50 hours of service
before a low battery condition is indicated . On the PFM6 and PFM6BD, a LO BAT signal on the display indicates a low battery .
On the PFM8, a flashing colon (:) on the display indicates a low battery . When a low battery has been displayed, immediately
remove discharged batteries from the tester to prevent battery holder corrosion .
To change the batteries, remove the four screws on the cover assembly . Pull the cover slowly upward to clear the internal
components . The batteries are located on the bottom of the case . See
Figure 12
. When installing the new batteries, ensure that
they are centered in the holder and making contact at both ends . Replace the cover and secure the four screws .
