A
Case for Multimeter PM
Put too much pressure on your AN/USM-223's latches and something
crack.
That something is the case.
Remember, the case is plastic. The latches are held by metal screws. Guess
what gives!
Throw in the tight, weatherproof fit the case gives you, and you have all the
ingredients for troubLe.
Head oFf ±roubLe by taking your time. And, don't store extra testing hard²
ware inside the case.
·
That just makes a tight fit tighter.
³asten diagonalLy
opposite Latches at
the same time. CLose
the front right and
rear left Latches in
one motion. Then,
´sten the other 2.
That'll spread out
the strain.
Here are a coupLe
of tips to get better
service µom your tester.
Adjust your muLtimeter in the same position it'll be in when you use it. The
best position is lying down. That way, it won't get knocked down¶and maybe
out¶during operation.
Remove the batteries when You're through with the tester fOr the day. ¸e¹
in the meter, they'lL corrode.
