Page 4: Safety Guide
OCS User Guide 1. Safety Guide For good performance and precise measurement, be careful with daily operation and maintenance. Note the following instructions: ▫ Do NOT overload the scale. This will damage the loadcell and void the warranty. ▫ Do NOT leave load hung on the scale for long. This will decrease the scale’s accuracy and shorten the loadcell’s life. ▫ Inspect shackle and hook before using. Check the clips, pins and screws regularly. ▫ Check the battery power frequently. When the scale runs out of power, charge the battery with its dedicated charger or replace it with a full one. ▫ Rotate the load rather than the scale itself if needed. ▫ Do NOT use the scale under thunder or rain. ▫ Hang scale on shelf in dry and well‐ventilated room. Do NOT place scale on the ground directly. ▫ Do NOT attempt to repair the scale yourself. Contact your local representative. 2. Features This scale is a combination of the sound and proven mechanical design, with today’s most advanced electronics to provide a superb feature set. It is versatile, reliable, accurate and easy to operate. ▫ Superb Quality: ... -

OCS User Guide In V , the weight reading keeps flashing to distinguish itself from that in IEW OTAL . EIGHING Apparently, T is the sum of history weight readings, which can be so great that the 5 OTAL digits screen is not able to display correctly. The T is therefore divided into two parts, the OTAL low 5 digits format, and the high 5 digits format. For example, the totalized weight reading “129235.0” will be displayed “9235.0” as its low 5 digits format, like below. The high 5 digits format of “29235.0” is like below.

Battery To maximize the battery life, please note the following battery maintenance guide. ▫ This scale is powered by a 6V rechargeable lead‐acid battery. ▫ The battery is permanently attached to the battery door. To remove the battery pack, turn off the two screws on the access door, pull the battery pack straight out, and unplug the battery cable from the scale. ▫ The battery works from 80 hours to 200 hours (depending on LED display brightness setting), before requiring recharging. ▫ In order to conserve battery life, the scale includes an A ‐O function which senses operational status UTO OWER for no activity after certain minutes that user sets, and turns the scale off. An additional battery saving feature is the auto I function. This feature preserves battery life by dimming the display after specified minute of no scale activity. ▫ Charging time for a completely discharged battery is approximately 6 hours. ▫ To obtain maximum service life from your batteries, they should be stored between ‐20°C (‐4°F) and +50°C (122°F). Stored batteries should be recharged every three months. Battery is fully charged when the status indicator is red. ...
