Owner`s manual

• Always discharge filter capacitors in the circuit

under test before you attach the ProbeScope. If

the ProbeScope touches an undischarged capac-

itor, it could damage it. If you touch an undis-

charged capacitor, you could receive an electric

shock.

• Always turn off power and disconnect the Probe-

Scope before you change power sources.

• Because many AC-DC sets have a potentially hot

chassis, be sure the top of your workbench and

the floor underneath it are made of nonconductive

materials.

• Unplug the ProbeScope before cleaning it. Do not

use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth

for cleaning and then wipe it dry immediately.

• Do not use the ProbeScope near water (for exam-

ple, a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry

tub, wet basement, or swimming pool).

• Do not use unapproved attachments.

• The ProbeScope should be operated from a 9-

13V DC power source, such as a battery or DC

power supply.

• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord.

Do not locate the power supply where people

might walk on the cord.

• If your ProbeScope doesn’t operate normally, in

particular if any unusual sounds or smells come

from it, immediately unplug it and contact your

local Radio Shack store.

• Do not attempt to service the ProbeScope your-

self; opening or removing the cover can expose

you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
