Calibration Check; Care And Maintenance - GE Protimeter Timbermaster Quick Start Manual

4 Calibration Check

The calibration of the Timbermaster
is checked by holding the electrode
needles across the exposed wires of
the 'calcheck' device (supplied) or
across the terminals of the Protimeter
Checkbox (optional accessory).
When checking the calibration, the A
scale should be selected and the tem-
perature probe must be disconnected.
Correctly calibrated Timbermaster
will register a (%MC) value in the
range of 17.8 to 18.3.

5 Care and Maintenance

When the Timbermaster is not in use,
keep it in its pouch together with its
accessories. Store the kit in a stable,
dust-free environment out of direct
sunlight. Remove the batteries from
the instrument if it is to be stored for
periods of more than four weeks, or
when the low battery power symbol
appears on the display. Check the
condition of accessories used with the
Timbermaster instrument on a regular
basis and replace them if they become
worn or damaged.
