1. Introdución
The AUTOOL SPT360 Automotive Spark Plug Tester is a digital high-frequency device designed to safely and quickly evaluate the performance and quality of spark plugs. It simulates real engine operating conditions with a test frequency up to 9000 RPM, making it compatible with spark plug tests for various crankshaft engines and motorcycles. This tester features a 5-hole design, allowing simultaneous comparison of up to five spark plugs, enhancing testing accuracy and efficiency. Users can observe the spark plug's flashover strength to determine its condition, facilitating precise maintenance or replacement.
2. Información de seguridade
- Always ensure the protective cover is securely in place before initiating any test to prevent accidental contact with high voltage.
- Do not touch the spark plugs or any metal parts of the tester while it is operating, as high voltage is generated during testing.
- Utilice o dispositivo nunha zona ben ventilada.
- Manteña o dispositivo lonxe da humidade e das temperaturas extremas.
- Use só o adaptador de alimentación proporcionado.

4. Configuración
- Conexión de alimentación: Plug the power adapter into the rear power port of the device.
- Spark Plug Placement: Insert the spark plugs into the designated test holes. One standard test hole is available for comparison, alongside four additional test holes. You can test between two and five spark plugs simultaneously.
- Funda protectora: Ensure the transparent protective cover is securely closed over the spark plugs before proceeding with testing.

5. Instrucións de funcionamento
- Encendido: Xire o interruptor de alimentación á posición "ON". A pantalla dixital iluminarase.
- Adjust Frequency (RPM): Use the 'Up' (+) and 'Down' (-) buttons to adjust the simulated operating frequency (RPM) from 200 to 9000 RPM. Observe the spark plugs' performance at different RPMs.
- Comparative Testing: The device allows for simultaneous testing of multiple spark plugs. Place a known good spark plug in the standard test hole and compare its spark strength and consistency with the spark plugs being tested in the other holes.
- Observar a faísca: Carefully observe the spark generated by each plug. A strong, consistent spark indicates a healthy spark plug. Irregular, weak, or absent sparks suggest a faulty plug.
- Apagado: Once testing is complete, flip the power switch to the 'OFF' position and disconnect the power adapter.

6. Mantemento
- Limpeza: Regularly wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure no liquids enter the device.
- Almacenamento: Store the spark plug tester in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
- Inspección: Periodically inspect the power cable and the device for any signs of damage. Do not use if damaged.
7 Solución de problemas
- Sen enerxía: Check if the power adapter is securely connected to both the device and a working power outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the 'ON' position.
- Sen chispa: Verify that the spark plugs are correctly inserted into the test holes. Ensure the protective cover is closed. If testing used spark plugs, they might be completely faulty. Try testing with a known good spark plug.
- Inconsistent Spark: This may indicate a weak or failing spark plug. Compare it with a new spark plug to confirm.
