  • Page 5: Testing Procedure & Information

    Because the inside of each bale is not uniform in density or leaf to stem ratio, moisture readings with your FARMSCAN 2188 will vary from one part of the bale to another. It will read highest if the probe is inserted into the “tight” side. Your meter will give higher readings in tight bales than in loose bales.
  • Page 6: Calibration

    A dirty tip can cause lower readings. Keeping the brass shiny will give best results. • Never immerse the probe in water. • Remove the battery, if your Moisture Meter will not be used for several months. DOCU-M0106 05-10 AM-2188 v4 09-19...
