Care and Cleaning
Your microFET3 is built to provide long lasting, reliable service. As with any precision instrument, it
should be used with care. It should not be dropped, banged against hard surfaces, or used as a scale.
The microFET3's exterior surface can be cleaned with damp soft cloth. Small amount of household spray
cleaner can be used. Any cleaner residue should be removed with soft cloth dampened with clean water. We
recommend that you periodically inspect your unit for wear, and proper functioning.
Calibration
The microFET3 comes with a calibration certificate, ensuring that the unit was properly calibrated at the
time of shipment. To ensure continued accuracy and reliability your microFET3 unit should be
recalibrated annually, by a properly authorized service technician.
microFET3 Transporting/Storage
Hoggan Scientific strongly recommends that you store and transport the microFET3 in the hard sided
protective carrying case provided.
Operating Features
IMAGE A
Power On
Pressing the RESET button activates the microFET3 unit. The unit will power-up in the testing mode that
was last used. Refer to Image A above.
Power Off
The unit will turn itself off automatically after 3 minutes of inactivity. This helps to maximize battery life.
Reset Button
Besides powering on the unit, the RESET button can be used to clear the displays and re-initialize the unit.
This may be necessary occasionally. Refer to Image A above for location of RESET Button.
It is not necessary to press reset after each test. The microFET3 automatically begins recording new data
when the force threshold is crossed.
