When disconnecting from a cir- cuit, disconnect the "RED" lead first, then the com- mon lead. Work with others. Use one hand for test- ing. Turn off power to the circuit under test before cut- ting, unsoldering, or breaking the circuit. Keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the probes. Do not measure resistance when circuit is powered. Do not apply more than rated voltage between input and ground. Voltage tests: Do not apply more than 600VDC or 600VAC to V ranges. AC tests: Disconnect the meter from the circuit before turning any inductor off, including motors, transformers, and solenoids. High voltage transients can damage the meter beyond repair.

Hi Voltage IndicatorIn any VAC/VDC range, when you touch a voltage

greater than 30V, the beeper will beep and the red Hi-V LED will blink. BE CAREFUL!Capacitance

For motor-start and motor-run capacitors.Disconnect the capacitor from power first. Short theterminals to discharge the capacitor. Disconnect anyresistors that might be between the terminals of thecapacitor.MAX and Data HOLD

Press MAX to store highest reading on the display.Press MAX again to return display to real-time read-ing. Press HOLD to hold current data on the display.Silicone Leads

Because the wire insulation is silicone the leadswill stay flexible in cold weather and will not melt ifbumped by a soldering iron.Safe One-Handed Testing

When testing electrical circuits with two hands,there is a risk that a careless mis-take may complete a circuitthrough your body and potentiallycause death or injury.

First disconnect the top half ofred test lead and plug tip directlyinto Volts jack. Plug alligator cliplead into the COM jack (you mayneed to use a lead with tipremoved as an extension). Thenclip the alligator lead to one testpoint.

With the black alligator leadsecured, you’re now free to holdthe meter with one hand andtouch other test points with theprobe tip.

Modular ExpandabilityModular expandability is the ability for accessory

heads and meters to change configurations to matchthe various needs of an HVAC/R technician.

Accessory heads (the sensors) send a mV signal,which represents the value of the parameter beingtested. Heads can attach directly to the top of a Stickmeter, DL3 data logger, or EHDL1. They can alsoplug into any meter with mV ranges using ADLS2leads.

Accessory HeadsAccessory heads, like the included ACH4, are the

sensors of multiple parameters measured by techni-cians every day. They plug into a mV range (depend-ing on the head) of a multimeter. The multimeter willdisplay whatever the head is measuring. Instead ofhaving to purchase and carry a separate instrumentfor each parameter, a technician can use multipleheads and a single multimeter to do the job.Here are four of the many heads available:

Selecting RangesFor DC voltage, set the meter to the VDC parame-

you expect. If display reads “OL” (overload), select ahigher range. If display shows less than three num-bers, select a lower range for better resolution.
