# DANGER is reserved for conditions and actions that are

likely to cause serious or fatal injury.

# WARNING is reserved for conditions and actions that can

cause serious or fatal injury.

# CAUTION is reserved for conditions and actions that can

cause injury or instrument damage.

# DANGER

Never make measurement on a circuit in which the

electrical potential exceeds AC500V since this instrument
is designed for low voltage measurement.

Do not make voltage measurements on industry power

lines of 250V or higher.

Do not attempt to make measurement in the presence of

flammable gasses.

Otherwise, the use of the instrument may cause sparking,

which can lead to an explosion.

Caution should be taken not to short-circuit the power line

with the test leads when measuring voltages. It may cause
personal injury.

Never attempt to use the instrument if its surface or your

hand are wet.

Do not exceed the maximum allowable input of any

measuring range.

# WARNING

Never attempt to make any measurement if any abnormal

conditions, such as a broken cover and test leads or
exposed metal parts are present on the instrument.

Do not install substitute parts or make any modification to

the instrument.

Return the instrument to your local KYORITSU distributor

for repair or re-calibration in case of suspected faulty
operation.

Do not try to replace the batteries if the surface of the

instrument is wet.

Ensure that the test leads are firmly inserted into the terminal.

Do not make measurement with the instrument case opened.

Ensure that the test leads are removed from the

instrument, and that the instrument is switched off when
opening the Battery cover for battery replacement.

# CAUTION

Always set the Function switch to the appropriate position

before making measurement.

Never rotate the Function switch with the test leads

connected to the equipment under test.

Set the Function switch to the “OFF” position after use

and remove the test leads. Remove the batteries if the
instrument is to be stored and will not be in use for a long
period.

Do not give drop impacts and expose the instrument to

direct sunlight, high temperatures, humidity or dew.

6. CAUTION FOR USE

• Make sure to check the fuse. With the range switch set to

one of the ohm ranges short the tips of the test leads. When
the pointer de

flects to the right (zero mark on the ohm scale)

the fuse is OK. If the pointer does not de

flect at all replace

the fuse with a new one (0.5A/250V) as it has blown.

• When the pointer is positioned off the zero mark on the

extreme left of the scale turn the zero adjust screw so that
it is set to the zero position. The instrument will not give
accurate readings when used without this zero adjustment.

• Before taking measurements make certain that the

range switch has been properly set. Also, make sure to
remove the test lead tips from the circuit, under test when
switching over the range during measurement.

When the voltage is accidentally applied to the current or ohm

ranges the fuse may blow or the instrument may get damaged.

7. HOW TO MAKE MEASUREMENTS

7-1 DC Voltage Measurements

⑴ Plug the red test lead into the plus terminal and the black test

lead into the minus terminal.

⑵ Set the range switch to DC 500V.

⑶ Connect the red test lead to the plus side of the circuit under

test and the black test lead to the minus side.

⑷ When the reading is below 250V set the range switch to

DC 250V and make the measurement. Follow the same
measurement procedures with the range switch set to the
desired position.

7-2 AC Voltage Measurements

⑴ Plug the red test lead into the plus terminal and the black test

lead into the minus terminal.

⑵ Set the range switch to AC 500V.

⑶ Connect the test lead to the circuit under test.

⑷ As in DC voltage measurements set the range switch to the

desired position and make the measurement.

7-3 DC Current Measurements

⑴ Plug the red test lead into the plus terminal and the black test

lead into the minus terminal.

⑵ Set the range switch to 250mA DC.

⑶ Connect the red test lead to the plus side of the circuit under

test and the black test lead to the minus side.

⑷ When the measurement is possible on lower ranges set the

range switch to the desired position and make the measurement.

7-4 Resistance Measurements

⑴ Plug the red test lead into the plus terminal and the black test

lead into the minus terminal.

⑵ Set the range switch to Ω.

⑶ Short the test lead tips. When the pointer is not positioned

over the zero mark on the ohm scale turn the ohm zero
adjust knob so that it is set to the zero position. When the
pointer does not still read zero replace the battery with a new
one as it is weak.

⑷ Connect the test leads to both ends of the circuit under test.

⑸ Set the range switch to the desired position and make the

measurement.

 Note: Make sure to turn off power when the resistance of a

circuit is measured.

7-5 1.5V Battery Test

⑴ Plug the red test lead into the plus terminal and the black test

lead into the minus terminal.

⑵ Set the range switch to 1.5V BATTERY TEST.

⑶ Connect the red test lead to the plus side of the battery and

the black test lead to the minus side for battery tests.

Note: 20Ω load resistor is used for 1.5V battery test.

7-6 Temperature Measurements

⑴ Insert red voltage test lead into plus (+) terminal and black

voltage test lead into minus (−) terminal.

⑵ Set range switch to TEMP position.

⑶ Short the tips of test leads and turn ohm zero adjust knob so

that pointer is positioned on CAL mark of temperature scale
(Fig. 3). After completing this procedure, remove test leads.

⑷ Insert red test lead of temperature probe Model 7060 into

plus (+) terminal and black test lead into minus (−) terminal
(Fig. 4). Read temperature direct from temperature scale.

  Note: Refrain from measuring the temperature of metal parts

having a voltage higher than 50V as it is dangerous.

8. FUSE & BATTERY REPLACEMENTS

Where the fuse has blown remove the housing case and

replace it with a new one.

Make sure to use the 0.5A /250V fuse as speci

fied. The use of

any other substitute may damage the instrument.

When the battery is weak the ohm zero adjustment

becomes impossible. Accurate resistance and temperature
measurements cannot be made without the ohm zero
adjustment. Remove the bottom case for replacement of the
weak battery with a new one.

9CLEANING METER COVER

Do not try to remove dirt on the meter cover by rubbing hard
with a dry cloth. This can remove anti-electrostatic agent applied
to the surface of the surface of the meter cover.

When the meter reading is affected by electrostatic build up on
the meter cover.
Wipe the meter cover surface using a cloth dampened with off-
the shelf anti-static agent or detergent.
To avid possible deforming or discoloring, do not use solvents.

To clean the body of the instrument, use cloth dampened with
detergent.

# CAUTION

Never use paint thinner, benzene or other solutions
containing solvents for cleaning the instrument.
Otherwise, deforming or discoloring of the instrument body
or the meter cover may result.

Note:

  Handle the instrument with care and follow the instructions in

order to maintain it in good condition for a long period of time.
