Safety Information
Safety Information
Caution identifies conditions and actions that may damage the 9040.
Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazard(s) to the user.
XW Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury:
• Carefully read all instructions.
• Comply with local and national safety codes. Use personal protective
equipment (approved rubber gloves, face protection, and flameresistant clothes) to prevent shock and arc blast injury where
hazardous live conductors are exposed.
• Use the product only as specified, or the protection supplied by the
product can be compromised.
• Do not work alone.
• Do not use test leads if they are damaged. Examine the test leads for
damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check test lead continuity.
• Do not touch voltages >30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc.
• Keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.

Users Manual
• Measurements can be adversely affected by impedances of additional
operating circuits connected in parallel or by transient currents.
• Verify operation prior to measuring hazardous voltages (voltages above
30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak and 60 V dc).
• Do not use the 9040 with any of the parts removed.
• Do not use the product around explosive gas, vapor, or in damp or wet
environments.

Determine the Rotary Field Direction
Determine the Rotary Field Direction
To determine the rotary field direction:
1. Connect the test probes to the end of the test leads.
2. Connect the test probes to the three mains phases.
3. The green ON indicator shows that the instrument is ready for testing.
4. Either the clockwise or counter-clockwise rotary indicator illuminates showing the type
of rotary field direction present.
XW Warning
The rotary indicator lights even if the neutral conductor, N, is connected
instead of L1, L2, or L3. Refer to the back of the 9040 for more information.
Note
The 9040 is powered from the installation under test.

Maintaining the 9040
W Caution
To prevent damage to the 9040:
• Do not attempt to repair or service the 9040 unless qualified to do so.
• Make sure that the relevant calibration, performance test, and service
information is being used.
• Do not use abrasives or solvents. Abrasives or solvents will damage
the 9040 case.
The only maintenance the 9040 requires is inspection and cleaning. Periodically wipe the
case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Clean only with soap and water and remove any
residue afterwards.

Replacing the Fuse (9040UK only)
XW Warning
For safe operation and maintenance of the product:
• Use only specified replacement fuses. See Specifications section.
• Before you replace the fuse, disconnect the accessory (cable or probe)
at both ends.
To replace the fuse:
1. Check the fuse using a simple continuity test.
2. Hold the probe in front of the finger guard and unscrew the tip in a counter-
clockwise direction.
3. Remove the defective fuse from the fuse holder.
4. Insert a new fuse in the fuse holder and reassemble the probe.
