Introduction 

Thank you for purchasing the SmartScale 600 Scale. Gallagher have 
been making agricultural weighing equipment for over 60 years and in 
that time have earned a reputation for quality equipment that 
withstands our tough agricultural conditions.  
The SmartScale range of weighing systems is simple, tough, 
innovative and reliable.  
All of the Scales in the Gallagher range can be matched to a choice of 
loadbar systems, as well as a range of platforms and crates to make an 
accurate and reliable weighing system.  
Although designed specifically for agriculture, the SmartScale range 
is also suited to many industrial applications.  
Features of the SmartScale 600 include entering tag numbers and the 
condition score of animals when weighed, a full QWERTY keyboard 
for entering animal management information and graphing options for 
easy animal performance analysis. 

 

First-time use 

When you open the Scale the first time, you will find that the display 
screen is covered with a transparent overlay.  The overlay is printed 
with the number 630 and other characters. 

 

Remove this overlay before starting to use the Scale.  The overlay is 
easily removed after first grasping the tab.
