5.2 Using the Electroprobe (Voltage Tester)

The electroprobe is designed for basic voltage detection. It is not a substitute for a multimeter or other professional testing equipment.

1. Hold the electroprobe by its insulated handle.
2. Place the metal tip of the electroprobe onto the conductor or terminal you wish to test.
3. Observe the indicator light within the handle. If voltage is present, the light will illuminate.
4. Always test the electroprobe on a known live circuit before and after use to ensure it is functioning correctly.

5.3 General Screwdriver Use

• Ensure the selected blade matches the screw head type and size to prevent damage to the screw or blade.
• Apply firm, steady pressure while turning the screwdriver to engage the screw head properly.
• For electrical work, always confirm the circuit is de-energized or use extreme caution, relying on the insulation for protection up to 1000V.

6. Manteniment i emmagatzematge

• Neteja: Wipe tools clean with a dry cloth after each use. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the insulation.
• Inspecció: Regularly inspect the insulation on the handle and blades for any cracks, cuts, or damage. Damaged insulation compromises safety.
• Emmagatzematge: Store the screwdriver set in its original protective case in a dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This protects the tools and their insulation from damage.

7. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your HURRICANE Insulated Screwdriver Set, consider the following:

• Blade not fitting securely: Ensure the blade is fully inserted into the handle until it clicks. Check for any debris in the handle or on the blade base.
• Electroprobe not lighting up: Verify the circuit is live by testing with a known working device. Ensure proper contact with the conductor. The electroprobe requires a complete circuit through the user's body to ground, so ensure you are not isolated.
• Screw head stripping: Ensure you are using the correct size and type of blade for the screw. Apply adequate downward pressure to prevent cam-out.
