Changing the electrodes:
Unscrew the 5 screws at the back of the instruments.
Remove housing lid. Unscrew all 5 screws on the electronic plate. Replace
electrodes.
Close instrument again.

ŏ
Remove the cap from the top side and place on the bottom side. Push
the wood/building switch to the left side during wood measurement, and
building material measurement, push it to the right side.
ŏ
Press the measuring electrodes as far as possible into the material.
ŏ
Always measure the moisture in the wood perpendicular to the fibre
structure.
ŏ
Repeated measuring yields representative measured data.
ŏ
Once the measurement is finished, reattach the cap on the top side and
the instrument switches itself o

The reading is shown in the form of data and bar gragh:
a continuous line
= even values e.g. 1, 3, 5,7,9
dotted line
= uneven values e.g. 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0
Overflow: reading >45%/4.5%
Reference bar display has to full.
When the digital reading > 60%/6.0%, the LCD will display “OL”
Please note:
Characteristics due to growth or type of wood and deviating
wood temperatures may make it necessary to correct the displayed values.
Measurements should be carried out according to the drying and weighing/
calcium carbide method in the case of inspections or for reference
purposes.
In order to conserve battery life, the meter will automatically turn o
ff
after
approximately 15 minutes. To press and restoration the power switches the
meter display is on.
When the batteries become exhausted or drop below the operating voltage,
the battery warning “
” symbol will appear in the LCD display. The
battery should be replaced.
Unscrew the 1 screws at the back of the instrument.
Remove the battery housing. Change battery.
Observe polarization!
Reconnect instrument.
