DC SHUNT INSTRUCTIONS
The  DC  shunt,  part  number  ïçìêè  readily  adapts 
to  standard  mount,  side  mount  or  tab  type  battery 
terminals.  The  shunt  must  be  installed  on  the  
ó (negative) terminal of the battery.
For standard terminals, attach ring terminal on shunt 
to post terminal on battery. For tab terminal batteries, 
attach shunt to battery terminal using 1/4" – 20 stud 
and  wing  nut.  For  side  terminal  batteries,  remove 
post terminal from shunt and thread into side terminal 
on  battery.  Attach  battery  cable  to  shunt  using  
3/8" – 16 nut from post terminal.
The Digital  Multimeter  will  withstand DC input  of  
10 – 20 Amps for up to 30 seconds. To avoid blowing 
fuse in meter, use the DC shunt when  checking 
current draw of 12  volt  starter motors or DC output 
on 16 Amp regulated alternator.
Charging output  can be  checked  with the  engine 
running. All connections must be clean and tight for 
correct amperage readings. 
1. Install shunt on negative battery terminal.
2. Insert  RED  test  lead  into  v    receptacle  in 
meter and RED receptacle on shunt.
3. Insert  BLACK  test  lead into 
ÝÑÓ
  receptacle  in 
meter and BLACK receptacle on shunt.
