Preparing the Multimeter For Use
Initial Inspection
After shipment the multimeter should be inspected for any signs of external damage. Should external
damage be found contact the carrier immediately. Do not connect a damaged instrument to the line
power as this may result in internal damage. Please keep the original box as this can be used when
returning the multimeter for service and recalibration.
Lifting and carrying the Multimeter
The multimeter can be carried easily by one person by supporting from underneath (Note : observe
all normal practices for health and safety when carrying). A custom carry case with shoulder strap is
available if the multimeter is to be regularly transported - see options list. The multimeter should
always be placed down on a firm flat surface on its base feet. Avoid knocking or banging the
multimeter and always place down smoothly.
WARNING
DO NOT DROP THE MULTIMETER AS THIS MAY CAUSE INTERNAL DAMAGE.
