Safety & Warnings
This service manual is intended for use by qualified electronics technicians only. To avoid electric shock, do not perform servicing unless you are qualified to do so. High voltage up to 2000 VDC is present on the CRT and power supply board when the oscilloscope is operating. High voltage up to 195 VDC is present on the sweep board. Line voltage of 120 VAC (or 240 VAC) is present on the power transformer, on-off switch, and power supply board any time the oscilloscope is connected to an AC power source, even if turned off. Always observe caution when the housing is removed from the unit. Contacting exposed high voltage could result in fatal electric shock.

Basic Usage and Operation Tips
Before using the Bk-precision-1477, ensure the battery is properly installed and the test leads are securely connected. Select the appropriate measurement mode using the rotary switch. When measuring voltage or current, always start with the highest range to prevent damage to the meter. Use the data hold function to freeze readings for easier recording. For resistance or continuity tests, ensure the circuit power is off to avoid inaccurate readings or damage.
Troubleshooting and Maintenance
If the display shows erratic readings or no response, check the battery level and replace it if necessary. Inspect test leads for any signs of wear or damage and replace if faulty. Clean the device regularly with a dry cloth and avoid exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures. If the meter fails to operate correctly after basic troubleshooting, refer to the full service manual for detailed repair instructions.
Safety Reminder
Always follow proper safety procedures when working with electrical equipment. Do not exceed the maximum input limits specified in the manual. Avoid measuring live circuits with damaged test leads or if the device casing is compromised. Use insulated gloves and tools when necessary, and never operate the multimeter in wet or explosive environments.
