Loup Acre Meter - Optional (After
05/15/2012)
IMPORTANT
Acre Meter is dust and splash resistant, under no
circumstances should this unit be submerged in any
conductive, corrosive, or flammable liquid. At no
time use high pressure water or air to clean it, as this
can damage the unit.
Acre Meter 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.
