Maintenance
When cleaning the keypad care must be taken to avoid liquids, especially alcohols, seeping around the edge of
the membrane. Therefore, we recommend the use of a lightly dampened cloth to avoid liquid spillage onto the
membrane.
Powering the Gauge
The BFG is supplied with a set of 4 Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable AAA batteries, which are supplied fully
charged to allow use straight from the box. Do not use any other battery charger other than that supplied with
the force gauge.
Fitting the rechargeable batteries
To replace the batteries you must first remove the battery cover on the upper part of the rear of the gauge by
removing the 2 retaining screws. Remove the fitted batteries and fit the 4 new batteries in the battery holder
ensuring that you observe polarity.
Refit the battery cover and tighten the 2 retaining screws.
Charging the rechargeable batteries
Connect the mains adaptor/charger into the charger socket on the top-right hand-side of the gauge, charge the
batteries for 14-16 hours. Only use the adaptor/charger supplied. A fully charged battery pack will provide in
excess of 50 hours constant use between charges.
Low battery symbol
If the low battery symbol appears on the display the accuracy of the loadcell reading may be compromised and
the gauge will power down after a short period of time.
Mains operation
The BFG can also be powered directly from the mains. This can be achieved with or without the batteries being
fitted. Connect the mains adaptor to your mains supply. Only use the adaptor supplied.
Fitting of alkaline batteries
The BFG can also be powered by AAA 1.5V alkaline batteries (not supplied). For fitting of alkaline batteries, follow
fitting instructions as per rechargeable batteries above.
Warning: Warning: When alkaline batteries are fitted, the mains adaptor/charger must NEVER NEVER be connected to the BFG
due to risk of acid leakage which could damage the instrument.
