Hold the scale in a vertical position without any weight on the hook. Press the
on/off/tare
key, all the LCD segments will display. Then the scale will
auto zero (indicated by small circle). Now the scale is ready for weighing.
Weighing
When the display shows [0.00], hook in goods and the display will show the weight value of goods. If the weight exceeds the maximum capacity of
the scale, the display will show [O-Ld] (overload). Please immediately reduce or remove the load, otherwise you may damage the scale.
Hold
If the item to be weighed is constantly moving (e.g. animal, object in air current) you may press
hold
to freeze the actual weight indication for 10
sec. or you may press
hold
before detaching the load for easy reading. The active function will be confirmed by an [H] on the left side of the display.
Tare
The function has been specially designed for net weighing substances in a container, like a bag, a basket or a bucket e.g. mixtures of powder,
liquids etc. First hang the empty container on the hook. The display will indicate the weight of the empty container. Press the
tare
key and the
display will return to zero. Now add the substance to be weighed to the container and read its net weight. You can also repeat this step and dose
mixtures of several components. When you remove the container you will get the negative reading [-] of the weight that was tared out by last
pressing the tare key.
Unit change
You can change the weighing unit by pressing the
unit
key any time:
kg -> lbs -> N
Turn off
Press and hold the
on/off/tare
key for 3 sec to switch off the scale. The scale is also equipped with an “auto power off” function. The scale will
automatically shut off after 120 sec of no load change in order to prolong battery life.
Maintenance
Please use clean water and wash detergent for cleaning. Aggressive cleaning solvents may damage the scale.
F User Calibration in kg
For best weighing results, we recommend to calibrate the scale from time to time if it is in regular and heavy use in changing environment. Optional
calibration weights available in the specialized trade or calibration by order to a calibration service.
1.
Before you switch the scale on, hang it up vertically.
2.
Switch the scale on.
3.
Check if the selected unit is “kg” (see the marking arrow on the right side of the display). If “lbs” or “N” is selected, press the
unit
key and switch
to “kg” reading.
4.
Turn the scale off by pressing
on/off/tare
for 3 sec.
5.
Press and hold the
unit
and
on/off/tare
key exactly at the same time for about 2 sec. The LC display will first show [88888] followed by an
undefined internal 4 digit code [-XXXX].
(If [0.0] is displayed instead of the 4 digit code, you did not simultaneously press the two keys as instructed. Switch off the scale and start again.)
6.
If the 4 digit code is properly displayed, wait for its stability. Then press the
on/off/tare
key. [2 Ero] is displayed followed by the calibration weight
requested e.g.:
- [80.0kg] for the model with 100kg capacity.
- [120.0kg] for the model with 200kg capacity.
7.
Gently hang the requested calibration weight on the hook.
8.
Press the
on/off/tare
key again. The display will show [CAL] followed by [PASS], confirming that the calibration process was successful. The
scale will return to the normal weighing mode.
Should [FAIL] be displayed instead of [PASS] a calibration error has occurred and the scale will switch off automatically. Please repeat the
calibration process.
9.
After successful calibration we recommend to unhook the calibration weight. Switch the scale off and on again. Hang on the calibration weight
and test if the reading corresponds.
Info:
If you have entered the calibration process and do not have the proper calibration weight on hand, abort the process by switching off the scale
with the
on/off/tare
key. The scale will show [CAL] followed by [O-Ld] and switch off. In this case no change or calibration of the analog digital
converter has occurred and the scale will read like before the trial process.
