4.0 DETAILED OPERATION.
ALWAYS consult the SAFETY GUIDE before using this
equipment.
See Figure 1 for Summary of Operation.
If using the Elcometer 136 in the carry case, pass the earth
lead through the loop on the side of the case. This reduces
the possibility of the earth lead becoming detached.
For the Elcometer 136 to function correctly, the substrate must
be a conductor and the coating must be an insulator.
4.1 Test Batteries.
Turn ‘Voltage’ fully anti-clockwise to set the voltage output to
zero.
Press [ON] to switch the instrument on.
Check the battery level indicator. The black segments indicate
the battery power level (‘F’ reducing to ‘E’). If no black
segments are displayed, the battery should be replaced or
recharged. See Section 7.0.
4.2 Connect Leads.
Press [OFF/Test] to switch the instrument off.
Turn ‘Voltage’ fully anti-clockwise to ensure that the
instrument is safe.
Connect the red, high voltage, probe handle and lead to the
high voltage probe connection.
Connect the earth lead (green connector, green and yellow
wire) to the earth lead terminal.
