Battery Replacement
The battery operated acre counter uses 3 AA batteries.
The batteries should last between 5 and 10 years. The
acre counter will last much longer than that. Eventually,
you will have to replace the batteries. The “
BATT
” LED
will light when the batteries require replacement. Remove
the acre counter from the implement and undo the 4
screws on the back of the case. This will separate the
housing from the rear plate. Replace the batteries with 3
high quality AA alkaline batteries.
This unit is dust and splash resistant, under no
circumstances should this unit be submerged in any
conductive, corrosive, or flammable liquid.
