The Bale Probe point is extremely
sharp and should be handled with due care. The point should be covered with
the cap provided with the probe when not in use
Calibration of unit -
The accuracy specifications of the product are valid
for one year from the date of calibration.
Periodic calibration checking, as outlined in section 4 , is advised.
Only operate the measuring instrument properly, for its intended
purpose and within the parameters specified in
the technical data. Readings from moisture meters are not definitive but are
used to help a professional make informed judgement to the material’s
moisture condition. Conductive material such as salts, carbon and metal can
give false positive readings.
