3 - Preliminary Checks
3.4 Zero Weight (Set Tare)
The weight should be zeroed if the
weight reading for an empty bucket is
more than ±0.02 (20 kgs) or in "USA"
units ±40 (40 lbs).
Ensure that the hydraulic system is up
to it's normal operating temperature. It
may be necessary to lift and lower a
full bucket for a few minutes to
exercise the hydraulics and warm the
system up. Observe the correct lifting
routine (section 2.2).
1.
Ensure that the bucket is completely
empty. Crowd (roll) the bucket right
back as far as it will go.
2.
Press and hold the TARE button (fig
9). The audible alarm will beep five
times and the display will flash 0.00.
3.a
Dynamic weighing mode :
Lift the
bucket
through
the reference position.
A single beep will be heard. The
display will show a value.
3.b
Static weighing mode :
Lift the bucket
up to the reference position and stop.
A single beep will be heard. If you lift
too high a second beep is heard and
the display will show 4 dashes (fig. 6).
If so, lower the bucket back down to
the reference position.
4.
As the weight is registered, the display
will continue to flash but may change
to show a number (fig. 10). Press the
REMOTE ENTER BUTTON to zero the
weight (fig. 11). The alarm will sound
one beep to confirm the weight is
zeroed.
5. Repeat the routine several times to
confirm the system is correctly zeroed.
