The Bk Precision manual provides detailed instructions for setting up and operating the device, including battery and fuse replacement procedures, as well as guidelines for using test leads safely. It also covers troubleshooting steps such as checking for blown fuses and offers safety precautions to prevent electrical shock during use.
Manual Overview
The Bk Precision manual provides detailed instructions for maintaining and troubleshooting the device, focusing on battery and fuse replacement, and the use of test leads. A low battery is indicated by the E5 symbol, and replacement involves removing the tilt stand and case back to access the battery compartment. The manual specifies using a 9V alkaline battery for longer life. For fuse replacement, the manual describes checking for blown fuses using a warning tone method for both the mA and 20 A inputs. It is crucial to replace fuses with the original type: a 0.5A, 500 V fast blow ceramic fuse for the mA input and a 20 A, 600 V fast blow ceramic fuse for the 20 A input. Test leads should be periodically inspected for integrity and cleanliness. The manual emphasizes safety precautions, such as removing test leads before servicing and using the supplied safety type leads. The device specifications include various measurement ranges and accuracies for voltage, current, resistance, capacitance, and frequency, with overload protection details provided for each.
Quick Issues Covered
- Diagnose power-up failures using fuse and battery checks.

Safety & Warnings
Remove test leads before changing the battery or fuse or performing any servicing. Use only safety type test leads, like those supplied. Do not exceed specified input ratings to avoid personal injury or instrument damage. Turn off equipment while making test connections in high voltage circuits and discharge high-voltage capacitors after removing power. Do not touch equipment, meter, or test leads while power is applied in high voltage equipment. Use an insulated floor material or floor mat to stand on, and an insulated work bench surface; ensure these surfaces are not damp or wet. Keep “one hand in the pocket” while handling an instrument probe to avoid contacting a nearby metal object that could provide a ground return path. Touch only the insulated portion of a probe, never the exposed tip.

Basic Usage and Operation Tips
Before using the Bk-precision-389a, ensure the device is powered on and the correct measurement mode is selected. Connect the test leads to the appropriate input jacks and probe the circuit or component under test. For voltage and current measurements, always start with the highest range to prevent damage. Use the data hold feature to capture unstable readings. When measuring resistance or continuity, ensure the circuit power is off to avoid inaccurate results or damage.
Troubleshooting and Maintenance
If the multimeter displays erratic readings or fails to power on, check the battery and replace it if necessary. Clean the test leads and input jacks regularly to maintain good contact. Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures, moisture, or dust. If the display becomes dim, replace the battery promptly. For persistent issues, refer to the detailed troubleshooting section in the manual or contact authorized service centers.
Safety Reminder
Always observe proper safety precautions when using the Bk-precision-389a. Do not exceed the specified input limits to prevent electric shock or damage. Use insulated test leads and avoid measuring live circuits with exposed conductors. Disconnect power before testing resistance or continuity.
