Battery Installation / Check
To prepare the equipment for use a heavy duty alkaline battery type 6LR61
should be fitted, such as a Procell/Duracell MN1604, Ever Ready 6LF22
Gold Seal, or equivalent.
The battery door is located on the bottom left hand side of the instrument.
Open the battery door cover by sliding the cover downward towards the
bottom of the instrument. The cover will now swing open exposing the
battery compartment. Insert the battery observing the correct polarity as
marked on the case wall.
Close the battery compartment door by reversing the procedure above. The
instrument is now ready for calibration and use.
The battery condition can be checked at any time by pressing the
STATUS
key twice. The battery condition indicated by a series of vertical bars – 4 bars
shows a fully charged battery, while1 bar shows one that is almost flat. It is
recommended that the battery should be replaced if only 1 bar is displayed.
Fitting the Accelerometer
To remove the accelerometer and cable, grip the collar of the
cable connector and gently turn the collar anti-clockwise to
undo.
To remove the accelerometer from the cable, grip the
accelerometer and gently turn anti-clockwise. Take care when
performing both operations that the cable is not twisted.
