Step 3
Replace the battery compartment cover and retaining screws.
NOTE! If the HSDC scale fails to operate after battery replacement check to
make certain that each of the six cells has been installed correctly. One cell
installed backward will prevent the scale from operating.
Before weighing operations can begin it will be necessary to install batteries in the scale. Refer to
the battery installation section of this manual for additional information.
Hang the scale from a support that is strong enough to support the weight of the scale PLUS the
weight of the material that is to be weighed.
Hang the load receiving element on the hook on the bottom of the scale and press the ON/ZERO
key. Look at the weight display. If the display does not indicate zero weight, press the ON/ZERO
key again to reset the display to zero.
Place the material to be weighed in the receiving element and read the weight in the scale display.
