KT60 Digital Timing Light
User Manual

 Introduction of Technical Terms

  1. Timing is given n “linear measurement” or “degrees” relative to the “Top Dead Centre” (T.D.C) of the movement of the piston (see figure 1 ).
  2.  B.T. D.C (Before Top Dead Centre):When the timing is “advanced”, the spark will occur before the piston reaches the top of the engine cylinder ensuring that the full power of the explosion is obtained.
  3.  T.D.C(Top Dead Centre):The piston is at ts highest point in the cylinder.
  4. A.T.D.C (After Top Dead Centre): When the timing is “retarded”, the spark occurs after the piston has started to go down n the cylinder.

Introduction

  1. For checking and setting gnition timing on automotive, agr cultural and marine engines.

  2.  For use on 9-16 volt systems.

  3.  Reverse polarity protected.

  4.  Accurate to 8, OOOrpm.

  5.  150cm long durable power eads.
    a. Display Area: Display gnition advance angle or engine speed.
    b. Indicator Area: ndicates that the product is n a certain functional state.
    c. Operation Buttons: “RIA” button: to switch speed and gnition advance angle to be displayed;

  6. mpact resistant housing.

  7. On/off trigger switch.

  8.  Bright inear Xenon flash tube for daylight use.

  9.  Focused lens provides concentrated light.

“4/2” button: to switch 4-stroke and 2-stroke;
“+” button: short press to increase gnition advance angle by 0.1 and ong press to increase by 1;
“.” button: short press to reduce gnition advance angle by 0.1 and ng press to reduce by 1.

Timing Adjustment

PLEASE NOTE: Before adjusting the timing, the “dwell angle” or “gap” should be adjusted on vehicles fitted with contact breaker points.

  1. Check manufacturers specifications for correct timing for engine being serviced.
  2.  Loosen the distributor clamp bolt so that the distributor can be rotated in either direction.
  3. Locate engine timing mark and use a rag to clean all grease and dirt from the mark and the pointer. It may help to use chalk or white paint on the mark to make it more easily seen.
  4. Start and run the engine until normal operating temperature is reached. Approximately 15 minutes and then stop engine.
  5.  Start the engine and operate at normal idle speed, aiming the timing light towards the timing mark.
  6. Trigger the timing light and observe the reading from the timing mark.
  7.  Compare the reading obtained with the manufacturers specifications. If the timing is not as specified, slowly rotate the distributor slightly to obtain a correct reading.
  8.  Stop the engine.
  9. Tighten the distributor clamp bolt.
  10. Restart and check the timing.
  11.  If it s the correct reading, stop the engine and reconnect the vacuum hose.

Operating Instructions

  1. Clamp the inductive pick-up around the  No.1 Spark Plug wire. Make sure the arrow on it s facing towards the spark plug. Do not allow the nductive pick-up to touch the exhaust manifold or surrounding parts as these areas become extremely hot and will damage the inductive pick-up.
  2.  Connect the RED clamp to the positive(+) battery terminal.
  3. Connect the BLACK clamp to a secure engine ground such as the alternator bracket or the engine block. For safety easons, do not use the negative(-) battery terminal or fuel system components as a ground connection point.

FAULT POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
No flash. 1.Battery clamps are reversed.
2.Poor connection of battery clamps. 1.Swap the clamps over.

2.Make sure the clamps are connected to a clean place.
Light flashes intermittently.| Inductive pick-up wire lying too close to the other spark plug wires.| Move the pick-up wire away from the other wires.

Important Safety Information

  1. If any doubt, contact a qualified auto electrician.
  2.  Always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from battery acid, petrol, dust and dirt flying off moving engine parts.
  3.  Always wear protective gloves when working with engine components.
  4.  Always ensure that hands, hair, clothing or cables are well clear of any moving or hot parts.
  5.  Always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation and procedures.
  6.  Always turn off the ignition of the vehicle before connecting the clamps to the battery and disconnecting the timing ight.
  7. Always ensure that the hand brake is on and the vehicle transmission is in Neutral (manual) or Park (automatic).
  8. Always keep children and unauthorised persons away from the working area.
  9. Always store the timing light in a safe, dry and child proof location when not n use.
  10. lways run the engine in a well ventilated area.
  11. Always remember that a flashing timing light “freezes” rotating components.Do not be tempted to touch an apparently stationary component which is, in fact, rotating.
  12. Never use the timing lights if they are damaged in any way.
  13. Never smoke, create sparks or use a naked flame near batteries.
  14. Never rest tools or metallic tems on top of the battery.
  15. Never touch any gnition components when the ignition s on as very high voltages are present.
  16. Never pull the cables or clamps from the battery terminals.
  17. Never operate in the vicinity of flammable liquids or gases.
  18. Never place the timing light on the hot engine surface.
  19. Never modify the timing light in any way or use it for a task for which it is not designed.
