Printed in U.S.A. ® T5-600/T5-1000 Electrical Tester Instruction Sheet W Read First: Safety Information If this product is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. W Warning • Do not use the tester if it is damaged or operating abnormally. Protection may be impaired. • Before each use: • Make sure the battery door is closed and latched. • Inspect the tester and test leads. Look for cracks, missing plastic, exposed metal, or damaged insulation. Replace damaged test leads before using the tester. • Verify the tester’s operation by measuring a known voltage. • Replace the batteries as soon as the low battery indicator (M) appears. • Do not use the tester around explosive gas, vapor or dust. • Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the tester, between terminals or between any terminal and earth ground. • Refer servicing to qualified personnel. • Use caution when working above 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc. • When using the probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the probes. • Connect the common test lead before you connect the live test lead. Disconnect the live test lead first. • The display will not display hazardous voltages in display hold. The voltage indicator LED ( ) continues to operate. Symbols � AC (alternating current) � Earth ground � DC (direct current) � Double insulated � Battery � Caution, risk of danger (refer to the manual.) � Caution, shock hazard Voltage Indicator While the tester is on, the LED glows when more than 30 V ac or 60 V dc is present across the leads. (The LED can also glow at lower voltages.) Be aware that such voltages pose a shock hazard. Measuring Voltage (V) The tester automatically selects dc (DC) or ac (AC) voltage mode based on the peak values of the measured signal. The tester defaults to ac voltage when turned on. DC Voltage T5-600 maximum: 600 V CAT III T5-1000 maximum: 1000 V, also 600 V CAT IV AC Voltage 45 Hz to 66 Hz T5-600 maximum: 600 V rms T5-1000 maximum: 1000 V rms, also 600V rms CAT IV DC AC AC/DCV Automatic Selection AC/DCV Automatic Selection ex2.eps

Measuring AC Current (A) 0.5"(12.9 mm) maximum A AC ex1.eps • Range: 0 A to 100.0 A; 45 Hz to 66 Hz • W Do not connect test probes to voltages while measuring current. • Place conductor anywhere within the sensor zone (shaded area shown below). OK OK OK OK Sensor Zone ex5.eps Display Hold To hold the reading on the display, press and release HOLD. The display will not display hazardous voltages in display hold. The voltage indicator LED ( ) continues to operate. To exit the display hold mode, press and release HOLD again, or turn the rotary switch to a new position. Automatic Power Down The tester turns off automatically if you do not turn the rotary switch or press HOLD for approximately 45 minutes. To resume operation, turn the tester off, then turn the tester on. Low Battery Indicator � W Warning To avoid false readings, which could lead to possible electric shock or personal injury, replace the battery as soon as the low battery indicator (M) appears. Maintenance Clean the case with a damp cloth and detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents. Because the inputs are electronically protected, no fuses are required.

Observe the polarity markings inside the battery compartment.
